England is defined by its historic architectural environment, but naturally with the advent of new building practices and materials, traditional crafts have been in decline. Many of these skills are in danger of dying out. This series follows the conservation and restoration of one of the most important buildings in the South of England over a period of three years. Categorized as of ‘exceptional interest and internationally important’, by English Heritage the photographs examine the process through the eyes of the craftsmen themselves. Showing behind the layers of brick and plasterwork the touch and tread of artisans of centuries past.
