The Duke of Gloucester Awards
Nominations are now being invited for The Duke of Gloucester Gold Medal. This
award, organised by Stone Federation Great Britain and The Worshipful Company
of Masons, will be made every three years and is to honour those in the natural
stone industry or the craft of stonemasonry, who have accomplished outstanding
achievement during their lifetime and whose work is of considerable merit.
The Duke of Gloucester Gold Medal Nomination Committee is seeking a candidate
who has made a notable difference to the industry or the craft, whether as a mason,
architect, designer, trainer, employer, manager.
There are a number of criteria which make an individual eligible for nomination
including having achieved national recognition within the craft, enhanced the
reputation of the natural stone industry or changed some element of the industry
with entrepreneurship, vision or innovation.

of Gloucester and the medal will be presented at a dinner in London on November
2010.
