TV company Ricochet is seeking to develop a new series about Britain’s master craftsmen. They say:
‘Each episode will explore a different traditional craft from stonemasonry to thatching and uncover the social history behind it. We would like to meet sector experts during the programming, building up to a major conservation project at the end that the presenter could help out with. Ideally this would be somewhere iconic like a cathedral, castle or a building that has some nationally significant history, such as stonemasonry at Canterbury or Gloucester Cathedrals or thatching at the Globe Theatre.’
The company is seeking projects that have on-going work or are due to start in the next 6 months or
so, that they could possibly get involved with on site. Any ideas please contact IHBC Director,
Dr Seán O’Reilly, at director@ihbc.org.uk , in the first instance.
