Stephen Coade Prize

Historic Buildings & Places are now inviting submissions for the 2025 Stephen Croad Prize

Do you have a new discovery on historical buildings of the United Kingdom?

Stephen Croad was an author, researcher and archivist of architectural history and during his career and in his voluntary roles made a profound impact on our knowledge and understanding of the UK’s architectural history.

In Stephen’s memory Historic Buildings & Places now run an annual competition, with a prize award of £600, to encourage new architectural research and writing.

In the spirit of Stephen’s own research and practice, contributions should be on factually verifiable, documenting new discoveries on historic buildings in the United Kingdom, whether part of the established canon or areas less examined. We will also consider essays on building conservation and heritage crafts. We would encourage submissions, revised according to the guidelines, based on work submitted towards an academic qualification already achieved…..
