What an incredible year it has been! It all kick started in March for International Women's Day with an incredible evening with Rochelle (Rocky) Clark MBE. In June Ambassador Jessica Morgan-Smith hosted a coffee meet up at Hillhead - International quarrying, construction + recycling show and we also had a special workshop led by Vanessa Louise Moore in London. Kelly Fenech organised a tour of Hartham Park Bath Stone in July and joined forces with Becca to meet with WINS members at FutureScape Event in September. The year was rounded off by Christine Ellis alongside Jessica with a #lunchandlearn in Manchester in October featuring Chris Heffernan A huge thank you to everyone who has attended our events and we are looking forward to even more in 2025. With thanks to all of our Ambassadors for championing the group and helping to spread the word Stella Zambelis Angelica Zambelis Gauri Yennawar Danielle Brooker Talia Weiss and to both of our Co Chairs Tamsin Pickeral and Becca.

Canterbury Quad at St John’s College was sensitively conserved as part of a major project to expand and enhance library and study spaces. The stonework presented complex technical and aesthetic challenges. Technical analysis revealed numerous fissures, some serious. The columns were carved in the 17th century from local Bletchingdon marble, but the original quarry had closed. Wright & Wright worked with a team of stone experts, including a petrologist, quarry consultant and stonemason, to source a suitable stone for the replacement columns, eventually alighting on Swaledale Fossil, a carboniferous limestone from a quarry near Barnard Castle in County Durham.  We gave this project an #OPTAward in 2023. We can’t wait to reveal the winners this year🎉 #OPTAwards #sustainability #futureofOxford #restoration #heritageconservation #oxford St John's College, Oxford Beard Construction Group, LLC Wright & Wright Architects Price & Myers Historic England
