Last night we celebrated some of the best architecture in the county at our Architecture Awards.
The location was perfect - the Assembly Rooms at Buxton Crescent (a previous recipient of a DHBT Architecture Award).
The Assembly Rooms consist of the Great Ballroom and the Card Room. These are the state rooms of the complex, designed to be the most public and, therefore, the most sumptuous.
We were delighted that architectural historian, writer, consultant and lecturer @jeremy.musson agreed to present the awards - thank you, Jeremy!
It was also wonderful that Eddie Tennant, grandson of Deborah Cavendish, Duchess of Devonshire (former patron of our charity) was able to present the award in her name for the outstanding overall project.
Full details of all entrants, commendations and winners to follow shortly. Many thanks to all those involved with making the event a success - especially DHBT trustees @lisbth_s and @archmusicman
