Previous | Page: 1 of 3 | Next       There has been a church on the same site at Honley St Mary's, near Huddersfield, for nearly 500 years and the use of traditional plastering methods could well extend that significantly. Ornate Interiors worked on the internal preservation of the existing church which dates back to 1843 as part of a conservation programme using historic lime plastering materials. Repairs were carried out to the plasterwork inside the church and a number of fibrous bosses were replaced together with arch mouldings in the ceiling area that had perished from water damage. The total contract has involved over 400 man hours for Ornate Interiors who are used to working in such sensitive surroundings and have applied their knowledge to a number of churches throughout England. Wakefield-based property consultants NPS masterminded the project and a high degree of specialist skill was required to restore the church as Assistant Principal Building Surveyor Helen Price explained: "The damage to the plasterwork and arches inside the church was significant and needed to be addressed but we wanted a solution that was sympathetic to the church's interior as well as offering a high degree of longevity.   - Newcastle Station - Gibson Mill - Temple of Minerva - Leeds City Station - Aakash Restaurant - Ashton Town Hall - St. Georges Hall - St Mary's Church, Honley   - Private Chapel - Midland Hotel, Manchester - Lyall Street, London - Akbars Restaurant
