This delicate. 17th century brick inglenook fireplace. It needed to be carefully restored. Because, of the wear and tear over time, also being used for it`s purpose. So first of all, I carefully cut out the old worn pointing. Then I repaired and replaced the brickwork. Then I could finally repoint the brickwork, using traditional lime pointing, supplied from Chalkdown Lime Ltd. Bringing it back to it`s former glory. As I carried out the restoration work, we found, and uncovered the original Bread oven. Carried out in. Appledore. Kent. In 2014.
