SUMMARY:Historic Building workshop\, Traditional vernacular building construction and materials\, Montecute House\, Somerset
DESCRIPTION:Historic Building workshop\nTraditional vernacular building construction and materials\n\n\nDate: Thursday 5 September 2019 \nWhen: 0900 – 1700 \nWhere: Local hotel followed by Montacute House \nCost:  £125.00 plus VAT (£150.00) to include seminar proceedings\, all refreshments\, lunch\, entrance to Montacute and comprehensive delegate pack \nThe day’s course will consider in depth the following aspects of historic building conservation and the care and repair of the heritage. \n• The local pallet of historic building materials. These including stone\, stone slates\, plasters and mortar\, and historic glazing.\n• Problems of decay and methods of repair\n• Montacute House\, its history\, materials of construction and evidence for change and repair. \nThe venue has been carefully chosen as Montacute House is a fine example of the use of local vernacular materials and traditional construction. The building was constructed at the end of the 16th century and remained in the same family’s ownership into the 20th century. It reflects the wealth and social status of the original owner and followed the general decline of the fortunes of these old families into the early 20th century. The building also displays good examples of joinery\, early internal decoration and the introduction of glass for domestic window glazing in the latter part of the 16th century. The day will include formal Power Point presentations\, material handling sessions and first hand observations of the buildings. The morning’s presentations will be based nearby where we will also have lunch. The afternoon will be spent on site at Montacute looking at the building and its materials of construction and contents so come suitably dressed for the weather. \nMain Themes \nThe local pallet of traditional materials.\nThe local landscape and historic system of land management affected the availability and use of building materials. The use of stone in the region was prolific and not just confined to the grand buildings and churches but was also used for a variety of ordinary domestic and vernacular buildings.\nTimber framing was also important in parts of the region in the medieval period but during the 16th century good building timber became scarce as oak was in high demand for ship building for the navy and the rapidly developing window glass industry was devouring vast quantities of timber.\nIn the late medieval period parts of the area saw the development of a local brick and tile industry. \nStraw for thatching was readily available from farming activities. However for the more prestigious buildings stone slates were extensively used where easily available. Clay tile was the preferred roofing material in the later periods as towns grew. The mid-nineteenth century saw the railways coming to the region and they provided cheap transport for building materials coming from other parts of the country. In this period slate for roofing became popular.\nGlass for glazing windows became more available at the end of the 16th century though was expensive. The use of glass on a larger scale during the 17th and 18th centuries is a good example of the conspicuous display of the wealth of the owner. \nHistoric Stonework\, Plasterwork\, and Glass – Problems of decay and methods of repair \n• Stone quarrying\, problems of decay\, cleaning and repair.\n• Early lime plasters and mortars\, their application care and repair.\n• The historic development of window glass and Glazing.\n• Approaches to repair and replacement of vernacular materials. \nMontacute House \nThe house was constructed between 1595 and 1601 for Edward Phelips\, a lawyer who had risen through the ranks of Tudor society\, and became an MP and Speaker of The House of Commons. He was Knighted in1603 and also became Master of the Rolls. The house was likely to have been designed and built by master mason William Arnold using the local Ham Hill Oolitic limestone which is a rich honey colour. The “H” plan form was typical of the Tudor period but still retained the more archaic central great hall and screens passage. The top floor was right up to date with a long gallery stretching the whole length of the building and well-lit with windows.\nIn the 1780s alterations were made to the west front to provide a corridor on all floors to give individual access to the rooms rather than having to go through one room to get to the next. Other small internal alterations were also done at this time. \nIn the 19th century the family fortunes were low so the building escaped the usual Victorian make-over which befell many large country houses of the time. It escaped with only minor internal alterations and re-decoration to make it more habitable.\nFamily fortunes continued to decline so in 1913 the house was leased out and much of its original contents sold\, the estate was also broken up and sold off.\nBetween 1915 and 1925 Lord Curzon leased the house as a country retreat and installed his mistress there\, the romantic novelist Elinor Glyn. He did undertake some repairs and re-introduced period furniture.\nIn 1928 the house was put on the market as an empty shell with the possibility of it being sold for the building materials. There were no takers due to the economic decline of the time\, but in 1931 the house and remaining fragments of the estate were purchased by Ernest Cook (Cook Travel) for the sum of £29\,000 and passed to the National Trust. This was only the second country house acquired by the National Trust and at the time they were not really geared up to repair and manage it. They therefore asked the SPAB to repair and manage the property and had hoped to find a tenant. It was opened to the public rather low- key and it was not until 1938 that the Trust took on the full management of the house.\nIn 1946 the Trust began to furnish the empty building with items borrowed from elsewhere and attracted some generous donations of collections including Tapestries\, Samplers and fine period furniture. Today the Trust has a partnership with the National Portrait Gallery and the house has many important period paintings on view. Over the past few years the period gardens\, landscape and setting of the house have been restored to a high standard. \n\n\n\nThe day will include formal Power Point presentations\, material handling sessions and first hand observations of the building.\n\nmontacute booking form can be downloaded here

SUMMARY:Historic Building workshop\, Traditional vernacular building construction and materials
DESCRIPTION:Historic Building workshops – Traditional Vernacular Building Construction and Materials\n\n\n \nDate: Thursday 18 July 2019 \n\nWhen: 0900 – 1700\nWhere: Abbeydale Industrial Hamlet\, Abbeydale Road South\, Sheffield S7 2QW\n\nCost £125 plus VAT (£150.00) to include seminar proceedings\, all refreshments\, lunch\, entry to the museum and comprehensive delegate pack\nThe day’s course will consider in depth three aspects of building conservation. \n[custom_list style=”list-2″] \n\nThe care and repair of traditional materials including stone\, brick\, mortar and stone slates.\nRecognising and interpreting change and adaptation in historic building construction.\nThe construction and former use of the historic Industrial and domestic buildings of Abbeydale\n\nThe venue has been carefully chosen as Abbeydale is an amazingly complete and rare surviving group of industrial and domestic buildings reflecting the vernacular materials and construction of the region in the 18th and 19th centuries. At the time the area was the “Silicon Valley” of the steel industry with its innovative methods of producing metal suitable for sharp edged tools. Although this particular site produced the humble Scythe it reflects the early years of the development of Sheffield as a world leader in the production of steel and fine cutlery. \nThe day will include formal Power Point presentations in the morning and a tour of the site in the afternoon for first hand observations of the buildings and the surviving machinery of the manufacturing processes. \nMain themes \nCare and repair of traditional materials. \nThe use of stone was not just confined to the grand buildings and churches but was also used for a variety of ordinary domestic and vernacular buildings. The methods of quarrying\, selection and use of stone\, identification of causes of failure and the selection of appropriate repair and conservation systems will be considered. Stone roofing slates was also a distinctive historic local material which is now difficult to source and also to find craftsmen capable of undertaking repairs. \nAlthough the most abundant local building material was stone\, brick became the more popular cheap alternative in the 19th century\, particularly with the coming of the railways providing an inexpensive means of bulk transport. \nThe first important stage of the process of repair is to identify the sources which have caused the problems of decay to occur; these must be resolved before the building can be repaired.  It is also important to understand the nature and function of historic mortars and the dangers of the use of modern cementitious products.  The use of inappropriate mortars can result in the rapid deterioration of historic fabric and long term structural problems. The problems of water movement\, salts and frost will be examined.  The methods of re-pointing will also be considered\, not only for aesthetic reasons\, but to ensure the correct performance and durability of the new joint. \nInterpreting change and adaptation. \nMost historic buildings have undergone some change during their life. It is important to recognise the evidence for these changes which in some instances may be the cause of more recent structural movement. Buildings may have been adapted to a new use for which they were not originally structurally designed and again this may be the source of current problems. The tour of the site in the afternoon will give the opportunity to consider first-hand the evidence for changes to the buildings fabric. \nThe historic buildings of Abbeydale \nThe Abbeydale complex was one of the largest water powered industrial sites on the River Sheaf. Originally the water wheels were powered directly by the river but in 1777 a large four acre dam was constructed to provide the greater capacity to power the tilt hammers and grinders. Later a steam engine was added to provide power when there was a shortage of water in the dam. The special tool steel was produced on site in the crucible furnace. This was a local 18th century invention which revolutionised the production process and was the root of the rise of Sheffield as a world renowned steel producer. \nThe site was used for the production of scythes and other edged tools from 1714 to 1933. The historic equipment for all stages of production still survives on site. Most of the buildings date to the 18th and 19th centuries and are mainly constructed in the local stone\, with stone slate covered roofs. One building has a 19th century brick façade\, and the furnaces and their chimneys were also of brick. \nThe complex not only contains industrial buildings and associated machinery but also cottages for the key workers and the manager’s house. \nIn 1960 a public appeal raised £50\,000 for the repair of the buildings and the site was opened to the public in 1970. Since 1998 the site has been run by the Sheffield Industrial Museums Trust who have been successful in obtaining a lottery grant for constructing interpretation and visitor facilities. \nSpeaker\nKevin Stubbs BA(Hons)  DipBldgCons(AA)  IHBC   CertEd\nKevin Stubbs is a Historic Buildings Consultant and comes with a background of education\, archaeology and building conservation. He was Director of Archaeology for the Test Valley in Hampshire and later moved to Hampshire County Council to join the Historic Buildings Bureau\, where he became the Principal Buildings Conservation Officer for the County. For eleven years he acted as the Director of a Conservation Centre and now runs his own Historic Building Consultancy and Training Company. \nHe advises on the repair and maintenance of all historic structures and provides training at all levels for the building conservation industry.  This includes the development of historic building technology\, traditional materials and hands-on craft training.  Work for Local Government Authorities includes Conservation Area appraisals\, historic building condition surveys and feasibility studies.  He has provided training exercises with local communities to raise awareness of their village plans and local heritage interpretation documents and he has provided Traditional Skills Awareness Courses for a number of bodies. He undertakes the Historic Analysis of buildings and produces: Statements of Significance; Method Statements; Impact Assessments and Specifications for the repair and conservation of traditional buildings. \nHe lectures for various CPD providers\, Universities and national building conservation organizations including SPAB\, RICS and the Weald and Downland Museum.  Topics include: Bricks and Mortar; Lime\, Plasters and Renders; Cob and Earth\, Timber Frame and Stone Structures and Traditional Roofing. \nDownload the abbeydale flyer \nDownload the abbeydale booking form \nOr book online below with a credit/debit card\, to enter names of delegates if the booking is not for yourself [please use the note field \nYou can also call 07429 523183

SUMMARY:Historic Building workshop\, Traditional vernacular building construction and materials\, Igtham Mote\, Kent
DESCRIPTION:Historic Building workshop\nTraditional vernacular building construction and materials\n\n\n\nDate: 3 July 2019 \nWhen: 0900 – 1700 \nWhere: The Bull Hotel followed by Igtham Mote\, Sevenoaks\, Kent \nCost:  £125.00 plus VAT (£150.00) to include seminar proceedings\, all refreshments\, lunch\, entrance to Igtham Mote and comprehensive delegate pack \nThe day’s course will consider in depth three aspects of building conservation. \n\nThe care and repair of historic timber frames and roof structures\nFrame infill panels\, plaster finishes and historic glazing.\nProblems of decay and methods of repair\n\nThe venue has been carefully chosen as Ightham Mote is a fine example of the use of local vernacular materials and traditional timber framed construction. The building developed from a small 14th century moated complex around its Great Hall into a sophisticated small country house by the end of the 17th century. Much of the early work uses the local Kentish Rag stone and the later work is an excellent example of timber framing. The building also displays good examples of joinery\, early internal decoration and the introduction of glass for domestic window glazing in the latter part of the 16th century. The day will include formal Power Point presentations\, material handling sessions and first hand observations of the buildings. The morning’s presentations will be based at the nearby Hadlow Manor Hotel where we will also have lunch. The afternoon will be spent on site at Ightham Mote looking at the buildings so come suitably dressed for the weather conditions of the day. \nMain Themes \nThe History and Development of Historic Timber Frames and Roof Structures  \nThe historic development of timber frames and roof structures from the medieval period to the 19th century \n\nCauses of decay and failure including mechanical failure\, rot and insect attack.\nApproach to structural repairs\, selection and use of materials and techniques.\nCase Studies\n\n Historic Infill panels\, Plasterwork\, and Glass \n\nThe history and construction of historic infill panels\, including wattle and daub and masonry.\nEarly lime plasters and their application.\nThe historic development of window glass and Glazing.\nApproaches to repair and replacement.\n\nIghtham Mote \nThe buildings were constructed over several centuries and reflect the changing needs of the occupants\, social changes and ideas of more comfortable living. The site was very constrained by being surrounded by a moat so all available space around the central courtyard was developed to the full. Stables and other estate buildings were constructed outside the moated area leaving the internal courtyard free of clutter. The buildings have survived remarkably well with only minor change and updating as the site was off the beaten track\, and the owners were not in high office or in the mainstream of society. From 1592 until 1889 the house was owned by the Selby family but in the 20th century was sold twice and in 1951 was purchased by a consortium of local businessmen who saved it from demolition. In 1953 the estate was purchased by an American who gave it to The National Trust in 1985. From 1990 to 2005 the Trust undertook a major scheme of conservation and are now continuing with a rolling programme of repair and maintenance. \nSpeaker\n\n\nKevin Stubbs BA(Hons)  DipBldgCons(AA)  IHBC   CertEd\nKevin Stubbs is a Historic Buildings Consultant and comes with a background of education\, archaeology and building conservation.

SUMMARY:Historic Building workshop\, Breamore\, Hampshire
DESCRIPTION:Historic Building workshops\, Traditional vernacular building construction and materials \n\n\n\nDate: Wednesday 19 June 2019 \n\nWhen: 0900 – 1700\nWhere: The Wildlife Conservancy Fordingbridge followed by Breamore House\n\n\n\nCost:  £125.00 plus VAT (£150.00) to include seminar proceedings\, all refreshments\, lunch\,  comprehensive delegate pack\n The day’s course will consider in depth the following aspects of historic building conservation and the care and repair of the heritage. \n\nThe local pallet of historic building materials. These including brick\, stone\, flint\, cob\, timber\, thatch and tile.\nThe methods of selection and use of materials\, identification of causes of failure and the selection of appropriate repair and conservation systems will all be considered.\n\nThe venue has been carefully chosen as the Breamore area is a good example of the historic use of a wide range of local building materials. The day will include formal Power Point presentations in the morning at Burgate Manor\, where we will also have lunch. The afternoon will be devoted to a tour of the Breamore area for first hand observations of the buildings including two of the estate barns. One barn is awaiting repair and has temporary supports\, the other was fully restored several years ago. The barns illustrate some of the conservation problems facing an estate with a large number of listed buildings. \nThe local pallet of traditional materials. \nThe local landscape and historic system of land management affected the availability and use of building materials. The use of stone and flint in the region was not just confined to the grand buildings and churches but was also used for a variety of ordinary domestic and vernacular buildings particularly in their foundations. \nTimber framing was also important in the medieval period but during the 16th century good building timber became scarce in the area as oak was in high demand for ship building for the navy and the local glass industry was devouring vast quantities of timber. \nIn the late medieval period the area saw the development of a local brick and tile industry. After the 16th century brick became the most abundant local building material and was used for both the prestigious houses and the smaller domestic buildings. \nStraw for thatching was readily available from the farming activities on the estate and was the most used local roofing material. However for the more prestigious buildings clay tile was the preferred roofing material and again appeared quite early in the region. \nGlass for glazing windows became more available at the end of the 16th century though was expensive. The use of glass on a larger scale during the 17th and 18th centuries is a good example of the conspicuous display of the wealth of the owner. \nOn the eastern side of the river was the escarpment on the fringe of the Crown Lands. Here there are buildings at the other end of the social scale\, constructed in cob. Many of these were encroachment cottages built quickly and cheaply from the ground they were standing on and using round poles of hedgerow timber for their roof structures. \nCare and Repair  \nThe first important stage of the process of repair is to identify the sources which have caused the problems of decay to occur; these must be resolved before the building can be repaired.  It is also important to understand the nature and function of historic materials and the dangers of the use of modern products which may not be as flexible or vapour permeable as the original materials.  The use of inappropriate mortars can result in the rapid deterioration of historic masonry and long term structural problems. Many of the problems with historic structures are due to lack of maintenance and water ingress. The most appropriate methods of repair will be considered\, not only for aesthetic reasons\, but to ensure the correct performance and durability of the new work. \nA brief history of the Breamore area. \nThe Breamore area has a long history of occupation and land management. To the west at Rockbourne was a large Roman Villa controlling the arable lands in the Avon valley. At Breamore there is an important Anglo Saxon church and in 1130 an Augustinian priory was founded on land adjacent to the church. \nDuring the Medieval period the area was part of the priory estate and on the eastern side of the river was the Royal hunting park of the New Forest. To the north was the lands controlled by the Bishop of Salisbury with his palace at Clarendon and to the south the vibrant market town of Fordingbridge. \nAfter the Dissolution of the Monasteries the estate past into private hands and in 1583 an Elizabethan mansion was constructed on the old priory site. In 1748 the estate was purchased by Sir Edward Hulse\, Baronet\, and has remained in the family ever since. Two miles south of Breamore is Burgate Manor\, our venue for the morning. This is an early 19th century house in Gothic revival style with a castellated façade facing the river. It would appear to be a remodelling of an earlier building and is a good example of the use of roman cement render to create the Gothic style. \nSpeaker\nKevin Stubbs BA(Hons)  DipBldgCons(AA)  IHBC   CertEd\nKevin Stubbs is a Historic Buildings Consultant and comes with a background of education\, archaeology and building conservation.

The morning’s presentations will be based at the nearby Egerton Arms where we will also have lunch. The afternoon will be spent looking at Little Moreton Hall so come suitably dressed for the weather conditions of the day. \nSpeaker\nKevin Stubbs BA(Hons)  DipBldgCons(AA)  IHBC   CertEd\nKevin Stubbs is a Historic Buildings Consultant and comes with a background of education\, archaeology and building conservation. He was Director of Archaeology for the Test Valley in Hampshire and later moved to Hampshire County Council to join the Historic Buildings Bureau\, where he became the Principal Buildings Conservation Officer for the County. For eleven years he acted as the Director of a Conservation Centre and now runs his own Historic Building Consultancy and Training Company. \nHe advises on the repair and maintenance of all historic structures and provides training at all levels for the building conservation industry.  This includes the development of historic building technology\, traditional materials and hands-on craft training.  Work for Local Government Authorities includes Conservation Area appraisals\, historic building condition surveys and feasibility studies.  He has provided training exercises with local communities to raise awareness of their village plans and local heritage interpretation documents and he has provided Traditional Skills Awareness Courses for a number of bodies. He undertakes the Historic Analysis of buildings and produces: Statements of Significance; Method Statements; Impact Assessments and Specifications for the repair and conservation of traditional buildings. \nHe lectures for various CPD providers\, Universities and national building conservation organizations including SPAB\, RICS and the Weald and Downland Museum.  Topics include: Bricks and Mortar; Lime\, Plasters and Renders; Cob and Earth\, Timber Frame and Stone Structures and Traditional Roofing. \nMain themes \nThe history and development of historic timber frames and roof structures  \n[custom_list style=”list-2″] \n\nThe historic development of timber frames and roof structures from the medieval period to the 19th century\nCauses of decay and failure including mechanical failure\, rot and insect attack.\nApproach to structural repairs\, selection and use of materials and techniques.\nCase Studies\n\n[/custom_list] \n Historic infill panels and plasterwork \n[custom_list style=”list-2″] \n\nThe history and construction of historic infill panels\, including wattle and daub and masonry.\nEarly lime plasters and their application.\nThe historic development of window glass and Glazing.\nApproaches to repair and replacement.\n\n[/custom_list] \nLittle Moreton Hall \nThe hall sits on a medieval moated manor site and is likely to be a replacement of an earlier building. \nThe first phase of timber framed construction containing the great hall dates to 1504-08 for William Moreton who was a prosperous local landowner. Extra wings were added during the 16th century and the final phase completed in 1610. The buildings display the height of Tudor fashion with decorative framing\, moulded plasterwork and even a 68 foot long gallery. At this time window glass had become readily available and the windows contain some 30\,000 leaded quarries set in a variety of patterns. \nThe carpenter who worked on the building in1559 was so pleased with his work that it carries the inscription; “Rycharde Dale Carpenter made this windovs by the grac of god” \nBy 1892 the hall was almost derelict when Elizabeth Moreton inherited it. She began a programme of repair which included the insertion of steel rods to stabilise the long gallery as it was suffering badly from roof thrust. The hall was transferred into the ownership of the National Trust in 1938 and they have continued with a sensitive approach to repair. \nDownload the little moreton flyer \nDownload the booking form \nOr book online below with a credit/debit card\, to enter names of delegates if the booking is not for yourself [please use the note field \nYou can also call 07429 523183

The collections also contain artefacts and equipment associated with the buildings and local crafts and rural industries. The museum is in 55 acres of parkland and woodland and contains buildings rescued from destruction and moved to the museum site. They include domestic buildings of various periods from medieval to the mid-19th century medieval barns and later agricultural buildings\, and rural industrial/craft buildings. There is also an early 20th century prefabricated chapel. The process of dismantling and rebuilding structures has enabled a better understanding of historic constructional techniques and the use of traditional materials. It has also enabled the developing and testing of conservation approaches and methods which are now becoming applicable to commercial renovations of our stock of heritage buildings. The museum attracts some 150000 visitors each year and runs a very successful educational programme for all ages and levels from school children to MSc students. \nDownload the event flyer \nDownload the w&d booking form \nOr book online below with a credit/debit card\, to enter names of delegates if the booking is not for yourself [please use the note field

The historic core of the house was constructed in the 1573 on the site of a medieval abbey. The house that we see today is a remodelling in stone dating to1702 shortly followed by a grand stable block and estate buildings constructed in brick in 1712. A riding school was added in 1767 reflecting the growing interest in horse racing. In 1807 William Wilkins was commissioned to upgrade the main façade of the house with the addition of a Grecian portico. There were a number of small changes in the 19th century and then nothing in the 20th century as the house and estate slid into a gentle decline. The estate was in the ownership of the Harpur family from 1622 and the last of the direct line of the family died in 1999.The house and a large part of the estate was rescued by the National Trust in 1984 via an arrangement with the government on death duties and a grant of £4.5 million from the National Lottery Fund. \nThe day will include formal Power Point presentations and material handling sessions in the morning and then in the afternoon a visit to the estate buildings and house for first hand observations of the buildings and the details of their construction and conservation. \nSpeaker\n\n\nKevin Stubbs BA(Hons)  DipBldgCons(AA)  IHBC   CertEd\nKevin Stubbs is a Historic Buildings Consultant and comes with a background of education\, archaeology and building conservation.

Looking closely at historic brickwork can give clues as to how the bricks were manufactured and laid and what alterations the building has gone through since its original construction.  This process can be likened to reading a detective story: the clues are there\, they just need interpreting by the observer\, thus enabling a correct and aesthetically pleasing repair/restoration to be achieved. \nUnderstanding historic mortars and the use of lime in the conservation of brickwork\nThe first important stage of this process is to identify the sources which have caused the problems of decay to occur; these must be resolved before the brickwork can be repaired.  It is also important to understand the nature and function of historic mortars and the dangers of the use of modern cementitious products.  The use of inappropriate mortars can result in the rapid deterioration of historic masonry and long term structural problems. The problems of water movement\, salts\, frost and the cleaning of brickwork a will be examined.  The methods of re-pointing will also be considered\, not only for aesthetic reasons\, but to ensure the correct performance and durability of the new joint. \nThe historic fabric of Calke Abbey and associated estate buildings\nThe Historic Fabric of Calke Abbey and associated estate buildings \nThe house and its associated buildings display a wide range of traditional building materials and methods of construction. There had been little change to the buildings and minimal maintenances work for the last 150 years. The contents of the building are quite unusual in that nothing was ever thrown away when it became shabby or obsolete. The attics had not been redecorated since the mid-19th century and were piled high with clutter. The whole estate was a time capsule of a past age with a character of its own. The big challenge for the National Trust was to stop further decline and deterioration but not to over-restore and loose the decayed atmosphere of time standing still. The buildings and their contents\, although carefully conserved\, still look very much like on the day the Trust took them on. \nDownload the calke flyer \n\nDownload the calke booking form \nOr book online below (if you do not have a paypal account please click on proceed to paypal and check out as a guest with a credit/debit card\, to enter names of delegates if the booking is not for yourself use the note field)

The use of stone was not just confined to the grand buildings and churches but was also used for a variety of ordinary domestic and vernacular buildings. The methods of quarrying\, selection and use of stone in the past contributes much to the character and grain of our historic Cities\, Towns and Villages. \nA basic understanding of historic stone structures will be developed. The identification of causes of failure and the selection of appropriate repair and conservation systems including the selection of replacement stone and methods of fixing will be considered. \nCare and repair of historic masonry structures and a selection of mortars\nThe first important stage of this process is to identify the sources which have caused the problems of decay to occur; these must be resolved before the stonework can be repaired.  It is also important to understand the nature and function of historic mortars and the dangers of the use of modern cementitious products.  The use of inappropriate mortars can result in the rapid deterioration of historic masonry and long term structural problems. The problems of water movement\, salts\, frost and the cleaning of stone will be examined.  The methods of re-pointing will also be considered\, not only for aesthetic reasons\, but to ensure the correct performance and durability of the new joint. \nCastle Drogo\, its design and fabric\nCastle Drogo was designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens for Julius Drew the very successful Victorian who owned the Home and Colonial Stores empire. He became a millionaire and was able to retire at the age of 33 and live the life of a country gentleman. He believed his ancestry stretched back to the Norman Conquest and so was keen to have a castle but with all the modern conveniences of the early 20th century. Lutyens designed a very large ambitious castle but eventually only about a third of it was built at three times the cost of the original budget. Work on the project started in 1910 and continued to 1925.The site chosen was very exposed and the local granite was used extensively for the fabric. The flat roof was constructed in cast concrete with an encased steel beam structure and then waterproofed with asphalt. The granite walls proved to be porous to the driving rain and the flat roof system doomed to early failure. \nThe National Trust were given the castle in 1974 and have been struggling with water ingress ever since. A major conservation project was commenced in 2013 and is due to be completed at the end of this year. It has involved dismantling and rebuilding high level areas of the granite wall structure and the total renewal of the weathering system of the flat roof. All the stone mullion windows have been overhauled as they were also a source of water ingress. \nDownload the  castle drogo flyer \n\nDownload the castle drogo booking form \nOr book online below (if you do not have a paypal account please click on proceed to paypal and check out as a guest with a credit/debit card\, to enter names of delegates if the booking is not for yourself use the note field)

The building is the product of a collaboration between Lord Stuart de Rothesay and his architect William Donthorn in 1831 in the picturesque Gothic style. Lord Stuart had a remarkable career as a diplomat and spent two period as British Ambassador in Paris. Whilst in France he amassed a vast collection of architectural salvage including 12 barge loads of Medieval and 16th century stonework\, stained glass\, panelling\, antique furniture and tapestries. This hoard of materials formed the major elements for his new house. \nThe castle was bought in 1967 for development and shortly after suffered two fires and then followed 20 years of vandalism and dereliction. The local council compulsorily purchased the property and in 1990 temporary works were undertaken to prevent further decay. In 1994 a phased scheme of repair commenced and is still ongoing with the current phase being supported by a £2.9 million Lottery Fund grant. The building now has a watertight shell with new roofs and well restored exterior. The interior was so badly damaged that it could not be economically restored to its former glory. However\, basic consolidation has been undertaken and areas brought back into community use. This conservation of the interior “as found” approach using modern materials to provide useable spaces is a quite interesting solution. \nSpeaker\n\n\nKevin Stubbs BA(Hons)  DipBldgCons(AA)  IHBC   CertEd\nKevin Stubbs is a Historic Buildings Consultant and comes with a background of education\, archaeology and building conservation.

The meticulous repair of the exterior has enabled the building to be presented in the architectural form as conceived by Lord Stuart and Donthorn and is a spectacular example of the Picturesque Gothic style. The consolidation of the interior allows the surviving post fire fabric of the building to be observed with no attempt to restore or create a facsimile of the original. No attempt has been made to disguise new structural elements and all options for restoration left open for the future. \nParking \nThe parking at Highcliffe Castle is limited to 4 hours.
