Day 121 - Soundproofing the Basement

Week 25 - Day 121
The floor of the chapel has now been strengthened by inserting an additional board underneath the thin floor boarding, and now a thick insulation fibre has been put in place. This will reduce noise transfer between the chapel and the basement.
We have a note in the chapel files which records that the noise of a harmonium being played in the chapel was an nuisance for residents of the cellar dwellings. Things must have got a lot worse when the organ was purchased!
