WEEK 14 - Day 55 Dismantling West Gable & Final Work to Stove House 5

The unsafe sections of the west gable of Stove house 1 were dismantled today. The area will be protected by sheeting over the winter.

The curved section of wall may incorporate the original garden wall of the entrance to the Red Lion Hotel, after which the salt works was named can be seen more clearly now. At this height the wall curves and has a sleight batter as it rises from the road level. it is also one and a half bricks wide.

The final remnants of Stove House 5 were removed from site this afternoon, all the parts not being saved for reuse that is.

There will be some before-and-after photographs posted next week to show how the site has changed over the last fourteen weeks.
