This is a picture of an arch that has had the three middle units damaged, so the three defected units are carefully been cut out and replaced with three new units.

This is a 17 unit red rubbers 3mm gauged arch, supplied by Lambs Bricks & Arches.

These archies were fully rebuilt using lime mortar and new bricks. At this time my theory hadn't been put into practice, this being, taking the brickwork down, setting them aside, then rebuilding it using most of the old bricks by turning the bricks around.



This arch was replaced using hand made red bricks lime mortar.


 

Rebuilt defected parapet, using lime mortar and using
red hand made bricks.

 

 

 

 

 

These three images show a new arch being re-made fixed into place with lime putty. This property had three new arches and all the old cement pointing taken out and replaced in lime mortar.
