Great to read the BBC South news article about the Heritage and Rural Skills Centre, based on the National Trust's Buscot and Coleshill Estates in Oxfordshire.

It highlights the need for traditional building craft experts, in areas such as stone carving, ironwork and lime plastering, to preserve and pass on their skills - and also included an interview with Master Plasterer and Freeman, Sean Wheatley.

We're proud to have been part of this too - all the plastering courses at the centre have, so far, been organised by The Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings (SPAB) and have been supported with bursary places by the Worshipful Company of Plaisterers.
