Oak Screen Memorial Text Repairs
Sometimes, it’s the little things....
We are working with specialist craftsmen on repairs to a memorial screen at St Mary’s in Mirfield. The missing carved letters have been individually crafted in oak and reinstated by the carpenters. The repairs have involved members of the family commemorated in the screen, who were able to visit the work taking place and get involved with the project.
...and sometimes it’s the BIG things!
The photo on the right shows the scaffolding rising up the tower...
