Based in and around London for ease of access to key archival, library and specialist research sources and expertise, we nevertheless operate across the country and will consider projects anywhere.
We offer consulting services to owners and users of historic buildings in the following sectors
education: schools, colleges and universities
hospitality: hotels, pubs, clubs and restaurants
commercial: offices and conference centres
