Today's Church

Is the one i'm working on



Failed plaster to several areas of the south wall of the nave.



Replastered with lime mortar.



Cutting out cement pointing at lower level on the south wall of the nave, this was holding the damp in and causing the salt crystlisation that was disrupting the plaster internally.

 

Looks fascinating work, Zigs. Is that down the south east somewhere?

Drove through on my way back from Dorset a year or so ago to pick up a propagator won on ebay.

 

I love churches I'm not a regular attender by any means but love the places
I visited some beautiful ones last year, some new to me some not. I think the oldest was st. Bega's By bassenthwaite ? Made my day!

It's corny ( could have been walking for miles prior) but the peace was deafening, gorgeous place
