Restoration of Notre Dame

Historic architecture expert Jonathan Deeming, Surveyor to the Fabric of Canterbury cathedral, will explore the 2019 fire’s impact, the reconstruction process, and lessons from major repairs at Canterbury.

Our Lecturer: Jonathan Deeming RIBA SCA AABC
Jonathan is a conservation accredited architect and Regional Partner for the North at architectural practice Purcell, where he has worked since 2006. His interests in the management, care and development of heritage sites are piqued by the variety of projects encountered at a range of scales in his appointments to Canterbury and Lichfield Cathedrals, where he is Cathedral Architect. Often these appointments involve working collaboratively with a range of skilled craftspeople and conservators - something he considers a real perk of the job!

Jonathan is a Commissioner for the Cathedrals Fabric Commission for England and Treasurer for the Cathedral Architects Association. He has previously acted as an assessor for the RIBA's Conservation Accreditation Scheme and the Conservation Member of the jury panel for the RIBA Regional Awards.
