The Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings gives our built heritage a bright future.
Through our campaigning and training, research and repair we keep old buildings useful, beautiful and part of people’s lives. From cottages to castles and from churches to cathedrals we are here to help buildings and the people who care for them.
We encourage sustainability, and excellence in new design to enrich and complement the built historic environment.
We train new generations of architectural professionals and building craftspeople to shape this landscape with sensitivity and skill, we play a statutory role as adviser to local planning authorities, we campaign actively to protect old buildings at risk and we carry out cutting edge research into environmental sustainability.
Thanks to gifts in wills our heritage will be enjoyed by generations to come.
