Shell Bridge Brickwork Repair, Surrey
Find out more about the building conservation work we have done in the South East of England.
This iconic and well known landmark, previously owned by Sir Donald Campbell CBE (the land speed, record holder), was in a sorry state of repair. The coping had broken up and had been thrown in the river by vandals, bricks were spalled and mortar eroded. leaving this unusual structure both dangerous and unsightly.
We matched the bricks and mortar and repaired the brickwork. we replaced the coping with new hydraulic lime mortar. The flint-work at one end had collapsed and we rebuilt it re-using the original flint and non-hydraulic lime mortar.
During these works we adhered to strict environmental conservation to ensure there was no impact from our work on the natural environment and wildlife.
Our work, has left this beautiful little piece of our nations history, once more safe and secure for generations to come.
