We were asked to show Canal and River Trust workers and volunteers how to point up setts with lime mortars, at Rotherham Lock
We were asked to show Canal and River Trust workers and volunteers how to point up setts with lime mortars, at Rotherham Lock. However, the setts needed taking up and re-bedding, which we did, before repointing with a moderately hydraulic lime semi dry mix. A little bit more work than anticipated but everyone seemed to appreciate the end result.
