Welcome

Thank you for looking at Douglas Kent Heritage.

This website is about my experiences renovating the Old Sun Inn, Church Street, Saffron Walden – an enchanting and much-cherished Grade I-listed historic building in Essex that displays some of the best pargeting (external decorative plasterwork) in England.

On these pages you can discover more about the building and current award-winning work to it, find out when you can visit by appointment, and learn of wider issues and campaigns in the field of building conservation.
