Preserving Heritage, Honouring History:
The importance of conservation in architecture

Located in the heart of the Richmondshire District and bordering the Yorkshire Dales National Park, KCA Architecture regularly works in conservation areas and with listed buildings.

We are passionate about preserving the heritage and natural beauty of the UK’s most treasured sites and our values blend architectural excellence with a deep respect for history and the environment while meeting the needs of the present.

Whether restoring a historic manor, adapting a centuries-old structure for modern use, or designing sensitive interventions in protected landscapes, we approach every project with meticulous care. Our expertise lies in navigating the unique challenges of conservation work, from strict planning regulations to the careful selection of materials and techniques that honour the past while ensuring a sustainable future.

Projects vary in size and complexity, but we aim to make a balanced judgement, whilst working with Clients, Conservation Officers, Historic England and Building Regulations to ensure buildings are protected.
