Essay Medal
Publication/Research Bursaries
Conference and Symposium Bursaries
Memorial Essay Prize
In memory of the giants who founded or belonged to the Vernacular Architecture Group in its early days, and prompted by the death of Pauline Fenley, former editor of Vernacular Architecture and a keen promoter of good writing, the Group has established a memorial essay prize. Through this it is hoped to encourage articles from those who have not previously published in national or international journals.

Conference Bursaries
The Group’s conferences are where members meet to study buildings and discuss their findings. Bursaries are offered each year to enable a registered student or a professional in the early years of his or her career to attend the spring conference. Details on how to apply for a bursary for the next spring conference will be published here in due course.

The International Symposium and Workshop on Cultural Property Risk Analysis is devoted to an increasingly important aspect of cultural heritage: risk assessment and loss mitigation. They are being held association with the ICOM-CC Preventive Conservation Working Group and sponsored by the Society for Risk Analysis. They will be at the Universidade Nova de Lisboa in Lisbon immediately prior to the 16th Triennial meeting of ICOM-CC to reduce travel costs for anyone wishing to participate in both.

Archaeologists, buildings historians and others concerned with understanding and preserving our heritage spend much of their time and energy on research, which is published in a flood of monographs and articles in specialist journals. Much of this fascinating work remains unknown to the wider public, whose understanding and support are crucial to the preservation of our heritage.
The purpose of the awards is to encourage researchers to present their research on British and Irish archaeology, historic buildings, and heritage conservation, to the wider public. Short-listed entrants present their research to a public audience as part of a day of presentations; they are judged by the audience and by a panel of judges.
Sponsored by the Royal Archaeological Institute, English Heritage, Cadw, Historic Scotland, the Environment and Heritage Service (an agency within DOE(NI), and the Department of the Environment, Heritage and Local Government (Republic of Ireland).
