Enries are invited for the 2010 Georgian Group Architectual Awards, sponsored by Savills.
Restoration categories are of a country Georgian house, of a building in an urban setting, of a church and of a garden or landscape, and there are awards for the best reuse of a Georgian building for a new building in the Classical tradition and the Giles Worsley award for a new building in a Georgian context.
The deadline is July 30 and awards will be presented at Christie's in November. For an entry form, visit www.georgiangroup.org.uk
In the meantime, the short list for the Country Life Restoration of the Decade, in association with Jackson-Stops & Staff, is published in this week's Country Life.
