The Friends of Woolhope Church are delighted to welcome Andrew Ziminski, acclaimed stonemason, church conservator and bestselling author, to St George’s Church, Woolhope.
Andrew will be giving an illustrated talk entitled “A Career in Ruins”, sharing stories from his fascinating career working on some of Britain’s historic churches and cathedrals, and offering a unique insight into the buildings, craftsmanship and history that can so easily be overlooked.
Andrew is the author of the bestselling Church Going: A Stonemason’s Guide to the Churches of the British Isles, a beautifully illustrated exploration of Britain’s historic churches through the eyes of a craftsman who has spent decades working on them.
