Your support will help us campaign and save historic buildings and places of all ages and all types.
Your support will help us assist local authorities, places of worship and building owners to manage change to the historic environment through casework.
Your support will help us encourage the study of architectural history and conservation by publishing a volume of the Journal of Historic Buildings & Places and three members’ magazines a year.
Your support will also help us to organise our annual series of events and Annual Lecture, our AGM and to award the Stephen Croad Prize each year to encourage architectural research and writing.
Each year, our members receive:
THE JOURNAL
A 150-page volume of the Journal of Historic Buildings & Places, comprising papers on a wide variety of subjects such as: The Saving of Holland House, the career of 17th century freemason Sampson Frisby, and Mies van der Rohe’s unbuilt design for the City of London.
HERITAGE NOW
Three copies of our 32-page colour magazine, Heritage Now. Each edition will be packed with news from the Society, casework notes and articles relating to conservation and preservation of historic buildings and places.
Visits
Invitations to a great variety of historic sites in the company of likeminded enthusiasts – including professionals in the field and those who simply like old buildings.
Our members will also receive:
- Online and in-person lectures
- Annual Lecture
- The opportunity to attend our Annual General Meeting, which takes place in June or July, and is held in a building of historic or architectural significance. This includes a talk on the buildings, a tour, and refreshments. Past AGMs have been held in Middle Temple Hall, Birmingham Town Hall, and Birkbeck Hall at the Great Hospital, Norwich
- Our new members are posted a welcome pack upon joining with the latest copy of our Journal and member’s magazine, Heritage Now. New members also receive a welcome e-mail and will be added to our E-Newsletter mailing list.
