The post of Surveyor of the Fabric of Westminster Abbey was established in 1698.{{#tag:ref|Alcuin Club Collections, Volume 38 (1952), page 223, Appendix VIII ('The Surveyors of Westminster Abbey') lists the Fabric Surveyors, the College Surveyors and the Deputy Fabric Surveyors from 1698 (from 1660 for the College Surveyors) to 1952.[1] The 2003 edition of the relevant volume from Pevsner's The Buildings of England series gives a similar list, but disagrees on the transition year between Pearson (who died on 11 December 1897) and Micklethwaite, giving the transition year as 1898 instead of 1897.[2] Pevsner also (incorrectly) gives the transition year between Buttress and Burton as 1995.[2]|group="n"}} The role is an architectural one, with the current holder being responsible for the upkeep and maintenance of the Abbey and its buildings.{{#tag:ref|For more on the modern evolution of the role and related guidance and legislation, see Cathedral Architect.|group="n"}} In the past, the role has involved overseeing new construction work as well as restoration and architectural conservation.
