150 Anniversary

Thanks to a £3,000 digitisation grant we are delighted to announce that we will now be making some of our earliest and most

To mark SPAB's 150th anniversary next year, The Landmark Trust is offering SPAB members 10% off holidays in their properties across Britain and Italy throughout 2027.

Next year is a big one in our long history: our 150th anniversary.

Founded by William Morris, the SPAB established a philosophy of conservation grounded in repair, honesty, and respect for the accumulated fabric of historic buildings.

A century and a half later, these principles are widely embedded across the heritage sector. But what do they mean in practice today?
