Day 161 - More Plastering

Week 34 -Day 161
Lime plastering continues on walls and laths.

Lime plaster being applied to the underside of laths to form the ceiling above
side pews, underneath the gallery on the Jackson Pit side, west side, of the Chapel.
The former Vestry can be seen in its stripped state at the far end. 


The ceiling above the side pews, under the gallery has been re-lathed and is now being lime plastered.
The inner wall on the Jackson Pit side includes a corbeled section of flue for the carrying of fumes and smoke from the central fireplace in the cellar. This flue was inserted from the inside of the building by cutting into the outside wall and creating a flue where none had previously existed. A chimney was then created through the roof, but inside the line of the stone gutter. See earlier photo of this feature from the roof side -
