Work began on this conservation plan in mid-1983, beginning with historical research prepared by the Museum and an assessment of the building's condition with consequents budgetary items proposed by the then Public Works Department (now Building Management Authority). A preliminary report was prepared in December 1983 (Linda Young, "Samson House: towards a conservation analysis") which contained a preliminary Statement of Cultural Significance, which has remained the same. The contents of the house were catalogued and immediate repairs recommended by the PWD were amended and approved and a general philosophy for the project adopted. Building work began in August 1984.
