The SPAB’s John Betjeman Award 2017

The Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings (SPAB) is inviting entries for the John Betjeman Award 2017, with a closing date for entries of 21 February 2017.

The Award celebrates excellence in conservation and repair projects at places of worship of any faith in England and Wales (and the Isle of Man); and recognises the highest standards of craftsmanship used in carrying out those projects.

The Award is made for repair or conservation of fabric, fittings or furnishings carried out in the last 18 months at an historic church, chapel or other faith building which remains in use for worship. However, cathedrals of any denomination are not eligible. It is not essential that the building is listed as being of architectural or historic interest – its age or architectural significance is less important than the quality of the repair
