York Minster - A Sustainable Future
Christ Church Cathedral Reinstatement Project and the Transitional Cathedral are delighted to welcome representatives from the York Minster Centre of Excellence.
Alex McCallion and Laura Cotter will give a paper on the York Minster Centre of Excellence for Heritage Craft Skills & Estate Management.
Their talk will provide an insight into the complexities of caring for an 800-year-old Gothic cathedral and its 2000-year-old estate. The Centre of Excellence will embrace cutting-edge technology to drive efficiency in the extensive restoration programme of the cathedral.
A core part of the vision is to share this knowledge with other heritage institutions on a global scale as we continue to foster traditional craft skills which have been used on the site since the 11th Century, whilst integrating modern ways of working.
Booking required: information@ccrl.org.nz.
