Book Description
The materials and skills needed to preserve and rebuild any old stone building, from the humblest cottage to the grandest castle, are examined in this book. Many stone buildings throughout the world have become derelict or incorrectly repaired because there is a false impression that it is either impossible or very expensive to make old buildings habitable. Using traditional techniques, this guide shows the proper methods of restoration and maintenance while examining how the buildings were originally constructed. In addition to stone, it covers lime mortars, renders, and other traditional finishes, and provides information on repairing stone arches, stone cutting, and stone quarries.
About the Author
Patrick McAfee is an expert stonemason who runs workshops on stone and lime. He is the author of Irish Stone Walls.
