Behind the Scenes: Building Conservation Tour
Join our Built Heritage and Capital Projects Manager, Katherine McClean, for a special guided tour exploring the important work that goes on, and the challenges that are faced, when looking after these buildings.
The majority of the buildings in our collection were moved from their original location and rebuilt on site as early as the 1960s - some of the buildings date as far back as the mid 1700s!
Look at fascinating examples of heritage building techniques such as thatching and lime parging, see conservation work in action and get a behind the scenes look into buildings that the public don't normally get to access!
Important Information:
- Booking is essential. Walk ups will not be permitted.
- This event will involve walking outside on some steep hills and potentially uneven and muddy surfaces – please check the weather and wear appropriate clothing and footwear.
