15th Century Cottage Wall Reconstruction
Colchester
Following the collapse of the side of this 15th century cottage, Riverleaf carefully reconstructed the wall under the guidance and supervision of the Conservation Officer, using approved materials and salvaging original materials wherever possible. As much of the existing oak frame as possible was retained. Using new oak, Baz employed traditional techniques to splice repairs into the original frame, with lime mortar used to create a finish appropriate to the period.
