Under the lamp
Here we shine a lamp on all things Six Heritage and beyond. This includes case studies of recent site investigations, articles relating to the historic built environment, and our monthly building pathology and history podcast The Life and Death of Buildings.

Matt and Pat are joined by guests who are leaders in their particular fields, such as Architects, Engineers, Conservation Officers, Craftsman and many more.
Inspiring our purpose: The Lamp of Memory
‘For, indeed, the greatest glory of a building is not in its stones or its gold. Its glory is in its Age, and in that deep sense of voicefulness… which we feel in walls that have long been washed by the passing waves of humanity.’
The Seven Lamps of Architecture, John Ruskin, 1849
Our purpose is inspired from John Ruskin’s, Seven Lamps of Architecture. A 19th-century work in which today’s guiding principles of preservation began.
