The Rubble Club
Gone but not forgotten: The Rubble Club is an organisation to
remember buildings demolished in their architect’s lifetime. The
Club is open to all who have had buildings destroyed in their
lifetime. The Club has three key ground rules: Firstly the
building’s architect must be alive and not party to its destruction,
secondly the building must be built with the intention of permanence
(exhibitions, shops and interiors are not eligible) and thirdly it
must be deliberately destroyed or radically altered, it can’t simply
burn down.

Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings
is involved in all aspects of the survival of buildings which are
old and interesting. Many of the most famous buildings in
Britain are cared for by some of the several thousand people who
have received SPAB training. A unique annual scholarship training
programme has been run since 1930 for young architects, building
surveyors and structural engineers, while the William Morris Craft
Fellowship provides advanced training for historic building
craftsmen. Shorter courses are run for both professionals and
owners.
