Following on from a recently completed commission to produce a full condition survey for Mansion House, MLA are assisting the City Surveyors’ Department in further trials and investigations this summer to further inform a comprehensive programme of conservation works to the House. This will provide valuable information on the building fabric and assist in forming a phased approach to this complex programme of works.

Under a separate commission, MLA are now working alongside Alan Baxter Associates to produce an updated Conservation Management Plan for the building to assist with the long-term care and management of the House, including the identification of Action Areas and priorities for improvements.

This key civic landmark, designed in the Palladian style by George Dance the Elder and completed in 1752, occupies a complete city block in the heart of the Square Mile and is Grade 1 Listed. Built as the official home and offices of the annually elected Lord Mayor of London, the building also provides a civic setting for state banquets, conferences, livery activity and business meetings.
