A COUNCIL is launching a programme of courses for traditional building skills.
The courses by Place Services at Essex County Council are designed to help conservation and building professionals increase their knowledge.
The courses and lectures are delivered by leading craftsmen and experts in their specialist fields and are open to a variety of levels of skill.
The lectures, which are recognised by the Institute of Historic Building and Conservation, run from Cressing Temple Barns.
A number of free places are offered under a bursary scheme, which heritage developer City & Country are supporting for the ninth year running.
To find out more about eligibility and to apply for funding, call 0333 013 2738 or email traditional.buildingskills@essex.gov.uk.
