Project Summary

The recording was required prior to dismantling of the asset, to inform the process of its dismantling and re-erection. It was undertaken to further understand the materials, condition, method of construction (including hidden constructional details including fixings) and method of assembly of the asset. A Level 3 record is required to provide a detailed understanding of its history, fabric (including hidden constructional details), setting and significance. This is to aid understanding of the asset to ensure it is dismantled, protected, transported and stored in a way to protect the asset and ensure its long term conservation.
