Here's another in series of 'this makes complete sense to me'. Everything coated, and protected, sitting culturally within a northern European context. Calm and unspoiled not livid with a thousand exposed joints. #Heritage #Lime #LimeFinishes #Limemortar

On site at St Stephen’s Church, Prenton — carrying out lime pointing and replacing defective weathering details including string courses, hood moulds and plinths. All in beautiful matching St Bees sandstone. #LimeMortar #StoneMasonry #BuildingConservation

Nipped to Alness on Friday for some screws (top High Street BTW with two hardware shops) and parked behind the funeral parlour. It's not like lime finishes are hard to find #DrivebyArchaeology #Heritage #LimeFinishes #Conservation #Lime #LimeMortar

Heading out to Guimarães in Portugal to present our paper on pressure difference and the positive impact of complete lime finishes and have been told I need to smarten myself up and do @curatorkate.bsky.social and I credit. #Heritage #LimeMortar #ClimateChange #LimeFinishes

We all love a flourish—like the decorative chimneys at Pentre Mawr House. We repointed them in lime mortar, which is sacrificial, protecting the brickwork from damage. It breathes, self-heals, and ensures these chimneys stand proud for years to come. #conservation #limemortar #buildingconservation

I better post something. Here goes, I've just repointed the wall of my house and added new guttering. Roofing has been done by a professional that knows what they're doing. #limemortar #victoriantownhouse #repointing #guttering
