History
Architectural Heritage was established in 1985 and is based at Taddington Manor in Taddington, Gloucestershire, England. According to its official website, the business has over 40 years' experience as a purveyor of fine garden antiques and describes itself as the UK's leading resource for fine garden antiques. The company is associated with Alex Puddy, whose name appears in the site's title. From its base in the Cotswolds, Architectural Heritage has built a specialist dealership focused on garden and architectural ornament rather than general antiques. Its inventory has included garden fountains, planters, sundials, seating, statuary and ornament, and it has served both award-winning garden designers and private clients. This specialist focus places it in the niche of high-end garden design and historic garden restoration. A significant development in the company's history is the creation of a sister company, Heritage Handmade Garden Collections (HHGC). HHGC is described as a specialist maker of fine quality, artisan-crafted garden planters, fountains, furniture, statuary and ornament, offering six handmade garden collections. The sister company complements the antiques dealership by providing newly made pieces in a similar aesthetic register. The business maintains direct relationships with its clientele through a mailing list for stock updates and event invitations, published newsletters, and an Instagram presence. Its registered entity is Architectural Heritage Ltd, with contact details at Taddington Manor, Taddington, Gloucestershire GL54 5RY, England, and telephone +44 (0)1386 584414.
