Survey Volunteer

The project surveys early stone buildings to identify and record mason' marks. Suitable for all, regardless of experience or ability, as training and support is available from experienced team members. The project's Director has mobility issues and is keen to encourage others with similar problems to participate. Opportunities also exist to digitise drawings and enter data into the records, if that appeals or suits you better. The project offers opportunities to access our ancient buildings and get "HANDS ON" with our built heritage.
