IHBC Northern Ireland Branch Chairman Andrew McClelland – also a member of the IHBC’s new Council+ structure – recently presented at the Ulster Architectural Heritage Society and Irish Georgian Society Summer School on ‘Conservation without Frontiers’.
Andrew McClelland said ‘There are a number of thematic areas where central and local government, NGOs and professional bodies could work more closely together on a cross border basis on the island of Ireland to strengthen heritage conservation policies and practices in the face of ongoing challenges, particularly in the Irish Border Region. This includes in cultural tourism, traditional building skills training, strategic development projects such as greenways, and dataset mapping and shared digital inventorying’
