The Verney Institute in Pleasley, Derbyshire, is one of the early works of the noted Arts and Crafts architects Parker & Unwin. A Heritage Lottery Fund grant was received by Bolsover District Council to fund the restoration of the building - Peter Rogan acted as Heritage Advisor and provided recommendations for the conservation of historic features and the designs for an extension to provide for access for people with disabilities. Photographs show the building before (right) and after (left) the works.
