Nick Cox - MA (Cantab), Dip Arch, RIBA SCA, AABC
Nick has over 30 years of experience working on historic buildings. After studying architecture at Cambridge University and Oxford Polytechnic he was awarded a Lethaby Scholarship in 1990 by the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings (SPAB) which took him around the country studying the repair and conservation of historic buildings.
He established Nick Cox Architects in May 2006 and has since built up an established client base; Nick is the appointed Cathedral Architect at Wells and Lincoln Cathedrals and had ten years at Winchester Cathedral carrying out a multimillion pound programme of award-winning work. He is the Palace Architect at Blenheim Palace, retained consultant architect to The Goldsmiths’ Company, the appointed architect for several Churches Conservation Trust churches and has advised the National Trust for many years, including at Kedleston Hall, Calke Abbey and Belton House.
In addition to being registered with the Architects Registration Board and a member of the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA), Nick is registered as an Architect Accredited in Building Conservation (AABC) and as a RIBA Specialist Conservation Architect (RIBA SCA).
Long term involvement with historic buildings and the SPAB (previously as Trustee, Vice-Chairman and Guardian) means that Nick is very well versed in the practical application and philosophical issues relating to repair, change and adaptation of historic buildings. He sits on the National Trust Historic Environment Advisory Group and is a member of their Specialist Advice Network. Nick also sits on Gloucester Cathedral Fabric Advisory Committee and the Historic England Historic Estate Conservation Committee.
