South East - Cliveden Conservatory Café nominated
by The National Trust
This project is a £1.5m refurbishment of the Grade II
listed Cliveden Conservatory. The project involves the
replacement of the fifteen-bay ridge and furrow glazed
roof over the building, adapting the building to combat
the effects of climate change, improving sustainability, and
implementing conservation repairs to the historic fabric.
The project demonstrates the Trusts commitment to diversity and inclusion, delivering a complex and challenging conservation project, adapting the building for the
future, to be enjoyed by visitors to Cliveden for many years
to come.
Judges’ comments - The project was notable for the team
leader role, who is the youngest female building surveyor at the
National Trust and demonstrates the Trusts commitment to
diversity and inclusion, delivering a complex and challenging
conservation project, adapting the building for the future, to be
enjoyed by visitors to Cliveden for many years to come.

The conservation and regeneration project was delivered
to an exceptionally high quality for both the inhabitants
and visitors to Plymouth.

scholarly restoration of an important Grade II listed building.
