We explored our archive for records of the SPAB's activity on Valentine's day. In 1895 founding committee members were discussing repairs to Eckington bridge in Worcestershire.

Before the mass production of cameras, artists provide the only contemporary record of what are now lost or overly-restored historic buildings.

Every year, the SPAB Scholarship gives young architects, surveyors and engineers an opportunity to specialise in conservation work. Over nine months the Scholars travel the country together, gaining invaluable practical experience of how best to repair old buildings.
