Chester Cathedral Stained Glass Restoration - The Glasshouse
At The GlassHouse, we specialise in the meticulous restoration and conservation of stained glass, particularly within historic and listed buildings. Our expertise ensures that the stained glass is preserved for the future and continues to remain part of our heritage.

Bryony has a huge amount of experience with listed buildings and ancient buildings countrywide, from Oxford and Cambridge Colleges to York Minster, Chester Cathedral, Shakespeare’s Birthplace windows and many medieval churches.

The GlassHouse is able to undertake thorough assessments of the stained glass windows and give written reports on how they may need to be restored or conserved.

The team will then do all the site and studio work necessary to ensure the stained glass is restored or conserved correctly, inline with conservation and restoration guidelines and protected for the future.
