In the second part of this month’s episode Helen speaks with Ian Clark, managing director of Ian Clark Restoration and Engtech fellow of the institution.

Ian is unreservedly passionate about the restoration and preservation of our historical and technological achievements, and it has been a part of his life for over 40 years. He has worked with the likes of english heritage, the national trust and hundreds of national and international organisations, conserving firearms, statutes, submarines, windmills and everything in between. He has received numerous awards for his work and his advocacy of conversation engineering and has played a leading role as a committee member of the heritage awards.

In part two of this episode on conservation engineering, Ian shares his thoughts on the value and legacy of the heritage awards and some of the ones that have significant meaning to him, why the preservation of buildings such as our own Birdcage Walk is so important and what his hopes are for the future of the heritage industry.
