Training the next generation of craftspeople
The Cathedrals’ Workshop Fellowship (CWF) was established in October 2006, and works in partnership with the University of Gloucestershire to provide world-class training in heritage skills. The CWF has two main purposes:
- To standardise and promote the training of stonemason apprentices in English Cathedrals
- To provide an accredited training development for stonemasons to Foundation Degree Level.
Throughout the two year course, stonemasons will study:
- Practice conservation techniques
- Stone construction and geometry
- Architectural history and archaeology
- Structural engineering and fixing
- Ornamental carving
