Internal conservation project moves steadily towards final phase
We were commissioned to undertake a comprehensive package of on-board conservation works which covered all main and below deck compartments together with the commanding officer’s cabin and access chamber and the gun tower.
The ICR contract which commenced in April 2013 was the third phase of the “Saving HMS Alliance” HLF funded project which also included a major civil engineering phase together with an extensive programme of ship repair conservation.
This series of images illustrates the complexity and physicality of the project which was required to quantify, prioritise and deliver pragmatic conservation solutions across a diverse and challenging series of materials, substrates and micro-environments.
