Day 37 - Roof Construction Diagram

Week 8 - Day 37
Whilst the painters get on with refurbishing the windows we can consider how the roof was constructed.
All these details have been hidden between the slates, roofing felt and a lath and plaster ceiling, but we can begin to dissect the original design and later alterations. As part of the rebuilding we have decisions to make, such as whether to re-introduce a stone gutter on the George Street elevation.
Most of this detail will be lost to view again as the lath and plaster is replaced around the beams and to re-,make the ceiling.
