The offering for sale presents an important opportunity to recognise not only one of the earliest & most inventive domestic works by Lutyens, but also the exceptional stewardship that preserved the Grade II* house over the past half-century 📷Rear facade Paul Waite Lutyens Trust

Yesterday we joined @WW_Architects for a specialist talk and tour of Lambeth Palace, exploring the first major refurbishment of this Grade I listed site in more than 70 years. 800 years of history. A £40m transformation. A new benchmark for sustainable heritage retrofit.

A view down the ruined Long Gallery at beautiful Kirby Hall, Northamptonshire. Part of the house is still roofed, part is a ruin…it’s all very beautiful 🥰 An elegant 16th century home, with some 17th century amendments & quite a few 18th century additions. Recommend a visit!
