The President’s Address, to be given by Mr Michael Taylor, BA, DipTP, MA, MRTPI, IHBC. Town planner and conservation specialist
The lecture will trace the origins of British conservation philosophy in the work of John Ruskin and William Morris and the long shadow that they cast over practice to the present day. Can those ideas from the 19th century survive the challenges of the 21st, particularly the urgent imperatives of the climate crisis?
Michael Taylor is a town planner and building conservation specialist with many years’ experience in local government, English Heritage, freelance consultancy, teaching and lecturing.
