History

Since launching in 2014 the associates of CJR Heritage Services have been involved in the restoration of iconic historic buildings along the Welsh border and the dramatic Lyulph Castle overlooking Ullswater in the Lake District.

Other projects have included a comprehensive refurbishment of the Old Mayors Parlour in Church Street, Hereford. This included re-roofing, complete renewal of the timber frame infill panels (to the latest Historic England eco specification) and notably restoration of the 17th century decorative plaster ceiling which was suffering delamination and fracture.
