Owlsworth Conservation is a UK-based specialist contractor dedicated to the preservation, repair, and adaptation of historic buildings and structures. With over 25 years of experience, the company employs a directly engaged workforce of more than 30 skilled tradespeople, including carpenters, stonemasons, lime plasterers, brick and flint layers, and blacksmiths. This in-house expertise enables Owlsworth Conservation to maintain high standards across all projects, ensuring the sympathetic conservation of the nation's architectural heritage. The company's project portfolio encompasses a diverse range of historic sites, from religious monuments and churches to royal palaces and scheduled ancient monuments. Notable projects include the restoration of Harmondsworth Barn, a Grade I medieval structure known as the "Cathedral of Middlesex," where Owlsworth Conservation undertook large-scale repairs and conservation efforts. Additionally, the company has worked on the Dashwood Mausoleum in West Wycombe, performing sensitive repairs to halt the structure's decline. Owlsworth Conservation's commitment to traditional craftsmanship is evident in their work on windmills and watermills across the UK and beyond. As one of the few remaining millwrights in the country, their team has restored numerous mills to working order, preserving these iconic structures for future generations. Projects such as the restoration of Brixton Windmill involved comprehensive overhauls, including the refurbishment of sails and caps, ensuring the mills remain functional and historically authentic. In addition to practical conservation work, Owlsworth Conservation offers consultancy services, providing expert advice on the preservation of historic buildings.
