Conservation Architecture
At Andrew Townsend Architects, we believe that preserving our built heritage is essential for future generations. Our team of conservation architects has extensive experience working on listed buildings and structures of historical significance. We understand that each building has its unique story to tell and requires an individual approach to ensure its preservation.
Our services include condition surveys, feasibility studies, design proposals for repairs or alterations as well as project management from inception through completion. We work closely with clients to ensure their vision is realized while respecting the integrity of the original structure.
Church Conservation
Churches are an integral part of our cultural heritage; they represent centuries-old traditions and beliefs that have shaped our society today. At Andrew Townsend Architects, we specialize in church conservation projects ranging from small repairs to complete restoration projects.
Our team understands that churches require special attention due to their unique architectural features such as stained glass windows or intricate stonework carvings. We work closely with church committees or diocesan authorities throughout all stages of a project ensuring minimal disruption during worship services.
Extensions & New Buildings

Our team of architects and surveyors work closely with clients to understand their needs and vision for the project.
