First the section plan:
Second, all the individual pieces sorted into the right shapes in readiness to be laid apart from the Purbeck which arrived this morning:
Next the Clipsham stone circle being laid in the centre. The hollow within the Clipsham to be filled with Lime Mortar - the Font when put in place will be bedded with Lime Mortar just overlapping the inner edge of the Clipsham by about 25mm all round. As you can see the new York stone paving is now all pointed up. I offered the stonemason a kneeler - but he declined!
Next some images of the the marbles laid so far with the Purbeck outer band - the colours will stand out more clearly once the circle is complete, pointed up and washed.
More to follow tomorrow as the work continues to progress. Lots of staining of woodwork was done today for the restored Blessed Sacrament Chapel - images of which will follow when complete.
