Join Ray Stockdale, Technical Manager at English Heritage (North East), for a fun and informal weekend of practical hands on training on a listed structure in the fabulous setting of Belsay Hall. This course will give you a solid introduction to the need for conserving flora on the wall, the importance of the listed structure, lime mixes, why lime mortar is used, cutting out techniques, appropriate pointing profile, 'knocking back' and maintenance. No experience required. This technical event is funded by English Heritage.
