The Somerset Building Preservation Trust

The Somerset Building Preservation Trust works to save the architectural heritage of Somerset for YOU and the nation as a whole.  Historic buildings that would otherwise be lost through dilapidation and neglect are restored.  They are then converted into a variety of uses - a tithe barn into a community hall, some 16th century almshouses into social housing, an 18th century Congregational Chapel into an area for the local community to enjoy exhibitions …… and much more.

Dip into this site to discover all you want to know about the SBPT and how you, too, can become involved in its activities.

Our members have been out and about enjoying themselves on visits

Two return visits to Whitestaunton Manor near Chard - to meet popular demand by members - were as successful as our previous visits.  We also visited Norwood Park Farm and The Farmstead - both

close to Glastonbury and absolutely wonderful restorations.
