Week 24 - Day 117
At the beginning of the project the ceiling roses were removed from their position and sent away for cleaning. One was fractured and broke during removal so a new cast has now been made from it.
A makers mark was revealed as all the layers of over-painting were removed.
Any one any ideas about who made it?
Information posted by the Friends of George Street about events and activities at the former Independent Methodist Chapel at George Street, Oldham by Age UK Oldham. The early posts describe the works to conserve, restore and adapt this Grade ll* Listed Building betwee 2012-13. Restoration works were supported by a grant from the HLF, with match funding from the Andrew Lloyd Webber Challenge Fund, English Heritage and the Architectural Heritage Fund as well as Viridor Credits and Lloyds Bank.
