The structures dotted over the landscapes that we most value, the streets and squares where we like to walk, the best-loved parts of our towns and cities, the buildings we would most like to be preserved for the enjoyment of those who come after us – these are the fruit of a collective, communal effort, sustained generation after generation.
Continuing to conserve, enhance and beautify these places which we so appreciate remains perfectly possible. Many craftspeople – more than is normally thought – still, quietly and almost covertly, with insufficient recognition and scant support, give continuity to a process without which our heritage would be doomed to disappear.
This exhibition seeks to shed light on those who keep this flame burning – those who strive daily to uplift the environment in which we live, safeguarding this invaluable heritage.
