Almshouse chimney rebuild

A leaning seventeenth-century chimney stack on a row of almshouses, taken down course by course and rebuilt to its original profile. We numbered and reused the original stone wherever it was sound, cut new copings to match, and re-bedded the whole stack in lime. The flues were relined as part of the same scaffold.

This was a restoration project. Read more about our stone restoration & conservation work.
