Historic Windows: their history, significance and conservation by Dr Nessa Roche, Senior Architectural Advisor, National Built Heritage Service, Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, author of the Department’s Advice Series: A Guide to the Repair of Historic Windows.
This is the tenth talk in the thirteen week Conserving your Dublin Period House talks series (download full programme here).
The talks provide an appreciation of the history and significance of Dublin’s period houses and practical advice on their conservation.
Attendance at the talks will greatly benefit owners of all periods and types of houses, from the modest Edwardian artisan dwelling to the substantial red-bricks of the Victorian suburbs and the fine townhouses of our Georgian city squares, providing an ‘A to Z’ for their care and conservation.
The talks will be of particular interest to owners of houses listed as Protected Structures or located within Architectural Conservation Areas. These talks will also benefit building professionals and practitioners and are approved for CPD by the Royal Institute of Architects of Ireland, Engineers Ireland, the Irish Planning Institute and the CIF Heritage Contractors.
Subscribers will be able to attend talks in person at the IGS's City Assembly House or online live through Zoom. .
There will be an opportunity at the end of each talk to ask conservation questions relevant to your period house. Those watching the talk live online can submit their questions through the Zoom Q&A function.
All talk subscribers will receive a recording of the talk to watch at their convenience. The recording of each talk will be accessed for two-weeks after issue
The Conserving your Dublin Period House talks are presented in partnership with Dublin City Council.
The talks are an action of the Irish Georgian Society Conservation Education Programme which is supported by the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage. The Society also wishes to acknowledge the support of The Heritage Council.
