Week Three.
After a rainy Bank Holiday Monday it was back to work today and the digging out continues. The weather was perfect so now only a small amount of soil remains to be taken away. Lots of old bottles were found in a rubbish dump area - most with a Salisbury manufacturer marked on the glass - it will be interesting to find a date for when that company was in business.
I used some brick and patio acid after work had finished for the day on my brick wall to see if it would remove some of the coal dust and limewash, but although it helped remove the limewash it took a lot of effort and didn't touch the coal dust staining. It was Jewsons brand so I will check the strength of acid and may have to use a stronger one.
View from the bathroom - you can see the amount of grey limewash on the brick wall - it is going to take a lot of work! |
