”International Women’s Day is a global celebration of the achievements of women. To highlight the excellent work women do in the heritage and conservation sector the SPAB caught up with women on site, at their offices or in their workshops to find out why they love their jobs and what buildings inspire them. 

The Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings (The SPAB) was founded by William Morris in 1877 to counteract the highly destructive ‘restoration’ of medieval buildings being practised by many Victorian architects.”
