AC Architects recently visited “The Old House Show” at the Old Royal Naval College, Greenwich. Organised by the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings (S.P.A.B.), this was the inaugural event for the trust which aimed to showcase the SPAB’s practical approach to working with historic buildings.

Throughout the day S.P.A.B. put on a series of talks, traditional craft demonstrations and exhibits focusing on the work in and around old buildings. The team particularly enjoyed a talk from Iain Boyd, the chairman of S.P.A.B. entitled “New design for Old Buildings - The SPAB Approach” as well as speaking to the exhibitors and enthusiastic craftspeople who were on hand to pass on their technical knowledge.
