Historic Building workshop, Care and repair of historic masonry structures, Somerset
2017-03-17 10:00 - 16:30 | Dunster Castle Hotel, 5 HIgh St, Dunster, TA24 6SF, United Kingdom
Historic Building workshops

Care and repair of historic masonry structures

Date: 17 March 2017
When: 1000 – 1630
Where: Dunster Castle
Cost: £120.00 plus VAT (£144.00) to include seminar proceedings, all refreshments, lunch and comprehensive delegate pack
The day’s course will consider in depth three aspects of building conservation.

The care and repair of historic stonework
Understanding historic mortars and the use of lime in conservation
Historic decorative plasters

The venue has been carefully chosen as the town and castle represents fine examples of Medieval and later stonework. The buildings of the town are mainly constructed in local stone with slate roofs and some slate hanging on timber frames. The major and very impressive medieval castle dominates the town and display masonry of many periods and centuries of repair including 20th century work. In the 17th century the castle was refurbished to turn it into a more comfortable country house. In 1868 the architect Anthony Salvin was commissioned to “refortify” the building to the Victorian ideal of what a great Medieval castle should be, but with contemporary home comforts The interior of the castle reflects changing ideas of decoration and comfort with fine examples of decorative plaster ranging through the 17th and 19th centuries. The day will include formal Power Point presentations and first hand observations of some of the buildings in the town and the castle.
The History and Architectural Development of Stone Structures
Stone Buildings are some of our oldest surviving structures in the country and there are many from the medieval and later periods in need of sensitive care and repair. The use of stone was not just confined to the grand buildings and churches but was also used for a variety of ordinary domestic and vernacular buildings. The methods of quarrying, selection and use of stone in the past contributes much to the character and grain of our historic Cities, Towns and Villages.
Care and Repair of Historic Stonework
A basic understanding of historic stone structures will be developed. The identification of causes of failure and the selection of appropriate repair and conservation systems including the selection of replacement stone and methods of fixing will be considered.
Care And Repair of Historic Masonry structures and Selection of Mortars
The first important stage of this process is to identify the sources which have caused the problems of decay to occur; these must be resolved before the stonework can be repaired. It is also important to understand the nature and function of historic mortars and the dangers of the use of modern cementitious products. The use of inappropriate mortars can result in the rapid deterioration of historic masonry and long term structural problems. The problems of water movement, salts, frost and the cleaning of stone will be examined. The methods of re-pointing will also be considered, not only for aesthetic reasons, but to ensure the correct performance and durability of the new joint.
Historic Plasters
Most historic buildings were finished with plain lime plasters internally. Much of the wall and ceiling plaster has now been replaced with modern gypsum based materials in ordinary domestic buildings. Original plasters are becoming a rare survival. The problems of using modern materials on solid wall structures will be considered particularly in relation to damp and the development and movement of salts. The historic development of decorative plasters will also be examined briefly and its care and repair discussed. Dunster Castle has fine surviving examples of decorative plaster work which are worth looking at in detail. Dunster flyer can be downloaded here

The care and repair of historic brickwork
Understanding historic mortars and the use of lime in conservation

The venue has been carefully chosen as it represents a fine example of 15th century and later stonework. This major and very large country house developed from a palace built by Archbishop Bourchier from 1456, and later extended by various archbishops of Canterbury. In 1538 Archbishop Cranmer was forced to give the property to Henry VIII and it remained in royal ownership though leased to a number of favourites until it was acquired by the Sackville family in 1605. The house remained in the ownership of the family until 1946 when it was given to the National Trust though the family still live in part of it. The buildings display masonry of many periods as it was modified and the interiors revamped in the 17th and 18th centuries. There has also been many phases of repair including major restoration of the Kentish Ragstone walls in the 20th century and now a large scale conservation project including not only the building but also its contents. The day will include formal Power Point presentations, material handling sessions and first hand observations of some of the buildings.

Care and Repair of Historic Stonework. A basic understanding of historic stone structures will be developed. The identification of causes of failure and the selection of appropriate repair and conservation systems including the selection of replacement stone and methods of fixing will be considered.The History of Brickmaking and Building in Brick
Bricks have been a principal building material in many parts of the country since the 16th century. The history and development of brick buildings and brickmaking will be examined up to the middle of the 20th century when bricks ceased to be a mainly local vernacular material and became a mass produced product by a few large international companies.
Interpreting Historic Brickwork
A selection of different types of bricks from different sources and periods will be handled and discussed, paying particular attention to how they were made and fired and how this affected their durability and character. Looking closely at historic brickwork can give clues as to how the bricks were manufactured and laid and what alterations the building has gone through since its original construction. This process can be likened to reading a detective story: the clues are there, they just need interpreting by the observer, thus enabling a correct and aesthetically pleasing repair/restoration to be achieved.
Care And Repair of Historic Masonry structures and Selection of Mortars
The first important stage of this process is to identify the sources which have caused the problems of decay to occur; these must be resolved before the stonework or brickwork can be repaired.

The venue has been carefully chosen as it represents a fine example of Medieval and later stonework. The abbey was one of the largest and wealthiest in Medieval Europe and displays good examples of stone construction from 1132 to the 16th century Dissolution of the monastery’s. Its isolated location saved it from total destruction and its inclusion as a romantic ruin in the 18th century landscaped park and water gardens ensured its survival today as the most complete monastic ruin in the country. The site also contains the late 16th century Fountains Hall, a number of 18th century garden buildings and statues and the fine 19th century church designed by Burges. The complex has the high status of a World Heritage Site. The day will include formal Power Point presentations, material handling sessions and first hand observations of part of the abbey buildings.

Main themes
The History and Architectural Development of Stone Structures

Stone Buildings are some of our oldest surviving structures in the country and there are many from the medieval and later periods in need of sensitive care and repair. The use of stone was not just confined to the grand buildings and churches but was also used for a variety of ordinary domestic and vernacular buildings. The methods of quarrying, selection and use of stone in the past contributes much to the character and grain of our historic Cities, Towns and Villages.
Care and Repair of Historic Stonework. A basic understanding of historic stone structures will be developed. The identification of causes of failure and the selection of appropriate repair and conservation systems including the selection of replacement stone and methods of fixing will be considered.The History of Brickmaking and Building in Brick
Bricks have been a principal building material in many parts of the country since the 16th century. The history and development of brick buildings and brickmaking will be examined up to the middle of the 20th century when bricks ceased to be a mainly local vernacular material and became a mass produced product by a few large international companies.
Interpreting Historic Brickwork
A selection of different types of bricks from different sources and periods will be handled and discussed, paying particular attention to how they were made and fired and how this affected their durability and character. Looking closely at historic brickwork can give clues as to how the bricks were manufactured and laid and what alterations the building has gone through since its original construction. This process can be likened to reading a detective story: the clues are there, they just need interpreting by the observer, thus enabling a correct and aesthetically pleasing repair/restoration to be achieved.
Care And Repair of Historic Masonry structures and Selection of Mortars
The first important stage of this process is to identify the sources which have caused the problems of decay to occur; these must be resolved before the stonework or brickwork can be repaired. It is also important to understand the nature and function of historic mortars and the dangers of the use of modern cementitious products. The use of inappropriate mortars can result in the rapid deterioration of historic masonry and long term structural problems. The problems of water movement, salts, frost and the cleaning of stone and brickwork a will be examined. The methods of re-pointing will also be considered, not only for aesthetic reasons, but to ensure the correct performance and durability of the new joint.

Date: 15 July 2016
When: 1000 – 1630
Where: Woodchester Mansion

The day’s course will consider in depth three aspects of building conservation.

The care and repair of historic stonework
The care and repair of historic brickwork
Understanding historic mortars and the use of lime in conservation

The venue has been carefully chosen as it represents a fine example of 19th century stonework. This country house is unique in being able to be viewed in its unfinished state with all its constructional details observable. The house is in an 18th century landscaped parkland and construction work started in 1858 for the owner William Leigh. The initial designs were drawn up by Augustus Pugin but a local young aspiring architect Benjamin Bucknall took over for the final detailed designs and construction. The house is a fine example of the Gothic Revival style of architecture. William Leigh died in 1873 and all work stopped with a completed shell and only a small part of the interior fitted out. His successors abandoned the project as it was too expensive to complete or demolish and replace with a new building. During the 20th century the finished parts of the house were used but it was mainly abandoned to the elements and was then purchased by Stroud District Council and leased to the Woodchester Mansion Trust in 1992. The house is now open to the public and is also used for training courses in stone conservation and craftsmanship and there is a continuing long term programme of repair.
