About Dominican60
historic buildings consultant
Completed a BA in Modern History, including architectural history, in 1967; an MPhil in Town and Country Planning in 1974; and a PGCert in Architectural History in 2010. Worked in the planning departments of Newcastle, Gateshead and Manchester before setting up my eponymous planning and heritage consultancy in 1992. Retired from the practice in 2013 but am a (largely quiet) consultant to it. Remain an active member of the IHBC and sit on a Diocesan Advisory Committee.
