@bramblescram @Emile2009 Be interesting to see how it fitted into a wider scheme - paint research perhaps?

What would you do if you found this behind your wallpaper? It appears to be hand printed or painted on hessian. My friend, a decorator, uncovered it but the owners want to paint over it.

A massive shout out to our newest team member Harry who #graduates 🎓🎓today from @UoLConservation Harry joined us last year on placement & we were delighted to offer him a position once he finished his studies #congratulations #graduation #conservation #Enjoy

@Quadrigacltd @HistoricEngland Looks great! Lovely to see the reveal and another #Leeds gem closer to coming back into use

The scaffolding is down at the Counting House, part of the Grade I listed Temple Works in Leeds. Thanks to generous funding from @HistoricEngland vital works have been carried out to make the building watertight. #listedbuilding #heritagerestoration #Leeds #heritage

Can you help? We need someone to visit Staunton on Wye war memorial in #Hereford #Herefordshire to check its condition and take some photos. Do you live nearby and could you visit for us? The info can be added directly to War Memorials Online: warmemorialsonline.org.uk/memorial/91238 Thank you!

Love it when paint samples remind you of something else such as geological formations. On the left a cross section from an 18th C London Town House, on the right sample of Fairburn Agate #paintresearch #layers #paintarchaeology
