Basildon Park Stonework Update.

WORK EXPECTED FOR WEEK COMMENCING 1ST FEBRUARY 2010 - from Ward & Co.

Ward & Co. will inspect and carry out necessary maintenance to the external window screens on the South Pavilion.
Due to the immanent start of scaffolding for lot B works, Heras Fencing and protection will start to be put in place.
The scaffolding is to be erected around the North Pavilion, hoarding will be erected within the fenced areas and the Heras fencing removed as soon as it is safe to do so.

Boden & Ward are working on the South Pavilion and on the main house. At the moment it is too cold for lime work so their main activity will be removing the stones remaining.
