🎃🏛️ Happy Halloween from Nye Saunders! 🏛️🎃

This Halloween, we’re celebrating the spooky side of architecture! Did you know that many historic buildings hide apotropaic marks, mysterious carvings once believed to ward off spirits? 🧙‍♀️✨

The image shows extensive taper burns discovered in an attic space during a recent site visit. These ancient symbols could be seen as the original architectural “security systems,” offering protection from the spectral forces.

For those joining our gathering next month with Pelham Planning, be sure to look out for our very own apotropaic marks!

Although the event is now fully booked, please contact us at info@nyesuanders.co.uk if you’d like to be added to the waiting list.

🕸️ Stay safe, stay spooky, and may your thresholds be well protected this All Hallows’ Eve!
