An Introduction to Old Buildings

speaker
Trevor Ottlewski

7.30 pm, Tuesday 25th May 2010 at St John's Parish Room

Buildings dominate our urban environment and are a major element of the rural landscape. How were they built? How can we tell their age? What makes a building worth preserving for future generations to enjoy? How can we protect them?

The Speaker
Trevor Ottlewski is Chairman of Wokingham History Group and author of the Francis Frith book on Wokingham & Bracknell. Through his tireless campaign to preserve Wokingham's historic buildings he has developed an understanding of both old buildings and the convoluted process involved in getting a building listed status.
