Training for the Landmark Trust
It is a pleasure to support the landmark Trust in their efforts to teach historic building restoration techniques, to not only local historic building owners but also to refugees’ groups, at Calverley Old Hall. A medieval manor house with a Grade I listed building status, situated at Calverley, West Yorkshire. This group of experienced Syrian builders, full of banter and humour, will I am sure do well in England, although they will probably never get used to our weather.
