Event Description:	A collaboration between Georgian Brickwork and Terrence Lee Conservation, this one-day seminar examines the development and success of brickwork between 1660 and the end of the Georgian period in 1830. By adopting a single philosophical approach, domestic buildings of all sizes reached new levels of standardisation. Yet for some in society, position and wealth projection was everything and therefore, clever deceits in brickwork found a receptive audience. 9.30am Registration & Refreshments 9.45-10am Welcome & Introductions Fitted Rigging House Training Room 10am-12pm Lecture by Terrence Lee of Terrence Lee Conservation Fitted Rigging House Training Room This lecture will examine the fundamental changes in domestic brick-built houses that occurred between 1660 and 1830.
