Centre for Building Conservation Studies: Buckinghamshire Thatched House – Survey Training Day

Wednesday 27 May 2026

Aston Clinton (The full address of the property, in Rochester, will be provided nearer the date.   It is a private home.)

This house, Listed at Grade II, is a good location for learning about several different issues in one place.

We will cover these items (and more):

* Different types of thatch and what to look for when doing a survey
* Applying for Listed Building Consent
* How refurbishment projects might not always succeed
* Damp in old timber-frames and what your options are
* The importance of a good understanding of heritage skills and conservation principles
* What can go wrong when things aren’t done correctly

It is an excellent base to learn from and will help you with your understanding of traditional construction.
