DBR are thrilled to have been part of an award winning team led by Purcell that has won an RIBA London Award for conservation work on Elizabeth Tower!

This prestigious recognition celebrates the years of dedication, craftsmanship, and collaboration poured into the project by our highly skilled stone cleaners, stonemasons, conservators, and craftspeople.
Elizabeth Tower has stood as a symbol of heritage and resilience—and we’re proud to have played a part in its conservation for future generations.

Adrian Attwood ACR Executive Director/Chairman says “This project is an exemplar of the high quality of our nations craftspeople and is a beacon for promoting vocational skills to the next generation of school leavers. It was a privilege for our stonemasons to be working alongside other conservation companies including Cliveden, Shepley, Reyntiens Glass Studio to name a few, conserving our tangible cultural assets and helping to maintain the UK as a primary world heritage tourist destination”

A heartfelt thank you to everyone involved including Sir Robert McAlpine as Principal Contractor.

Have you got a project that you would like to discuss with a professional member of our team?
