Welcome

Thank you for looking at Douglas Kent Heritage.

This website is about my experiences renovating 25-27 Church Street, Saffron Walden – an enchanting and much-cherished Grade I-listed historic house in Essex that forms part of the old Sun Inn and displays some of the best pargeting (external decorative plasterwork) in England.

On these pages you can discover more about the house 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.
