Join Shoe Lane Library and Will Palin for a talk on the landmark project to rejuvenate the Grade I listed North Wing of Bart’s Hospital.
In 2023, the 900th anniversary of St Bartholomew’s Hospital, Barts Heritage will embark on a landmark £9m project to repair, conserve and rejuvenate the Grade I listed North Wing at St Bartholomew’s Hospital, including its celebrated interiors, the Hogarth Stair and Great Hall.

He was a curator at Sir John Soane’s Museum, then director of SAVE Britain’s Heritage. Most recently he worked as Conservation Director at the Old Royal Naval College at Greenwich where he led the multi-award-winning Painted Hall conservation project.
