Could your restoration project feature in a new TV series?

Endemol, the makers of the original BBC series Restoration are in production for a new BBC Two series Restoration Home. Restoration Home will feature historically and architecturally important buildings being lovingly restored by their private owners and they are currently looking for projects of all sizes which are set to start on site sometime over the next year.

Each show will chart the restoration process by the owners of one house, as they restore it to its former glory. As in the original series of Restoration, the property will be brought to life, setting it in its cultural and historic context. At the same time, they will look at the different stages of its architectural styles. The house may have different additions over time, and each one will reveal important social and historical developments. The restoration process will bring to light the difficult decisions about what ought to be saved and what can be sacrificed to make way for a 21st century home.

If you are interested, or if you would like any further information, contact Natasha Evans at Endomol, tel: 0208 222 4326 or email: natasha.evans@endemoluk.com. This would not be a commitment for you to be in the programme.

Building of the Month November 2024: Ivy Cottage, Kelvin Grove, Liverpool

Ivy Cottage is a locally loved landmark building within the already famous ‘Welsh Streets’. Following SAVE’s major campaign in 2015 to revive the Welsh Streets, the streets were transferred to Manchester-based house builders, Placefirst, who have since undertaken the restoration of the neighbourhood with their heritage-led regeneration scheme. However, Ivy Cottage remains vacant and deteriorating having not yet joined the ranks of its surrounding neighbourhood as a restoration success.
