Day 346, How's that listed Georgian building coming along?


Not entirely convinced this is how the Georgians would have constructed the original building.

I expect the barriers to stop urchins falling to their demise aren't really an idea they would have been familiar with given the unlimited supply of cheap labour.

And RSJs, not really their thing as the first one used in a building wasn't until 1901 - for info it's in Bessemer House on Carlisle Street East, Sheffield.



It looks more like a giant greenhouse at the moment, and still some time away from the walls returning.
