<\/p>\n

Ben Cowell as GASA Judge: \u2018I am absolutely thrilled to be the judge for the IHBC\u2019s 2019 Gus Astley Student Award. \u00a0The Award recognises excellence in research at the cutting-edge of historic environment conservation, and it will be a genuine pleasure to engage with this year\u2019s entries and to hear about the diverse approaches and issues currently being explored.\u2019<\/p>\n

Bob Kindred, Chair of the Gus Astley Trustees said: \u2018I am delighted that Ben has agreed to be Institute\u2019s Guest Judge for the 2019 Awards. Ben is the Director General of Historic Houses and was formerly involved with Social and Economic Policy Research at English Heritage and the East Anglia Regional Director of the National Trust.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018Having made an overview of the submissions, it is evident to me that many of the candidates this year have demonstrated a clear sightedness and undertaken thorough research into under-regarded aspects of heritage policy and practice.\u00a0 I am sure Ben will find the adjudication on the submissions a rewarding experience.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u2018I\u2019ve known Ben for nearly 20 years and we have intermittently followed and communicated on the fluctuating fortunes of the local football team we both support.\u2019<\/p>\n

Andrew Shepherd, Chair IHBC Education Committee, said: \u2018I’m also delighted that the Gus Astley Trustees have managed to persuade Ben to be the Guest Judge. His breadth of experiences during his career to date will ensure a thorough and informed review of the submissions \u2013 good luck to him, and to all those submitting\u2019.<\/p>\n
