Details:
Within the borough of Erewash in Derbyshire is a small, tranquil village called Dale Abbey that contains the remains of an abbey founded in the 12th or 13th century by Augustinian monks.
All that remains to this day is a 40ft high chancel window standing alone in a grassy field. Excavations have revealed that the church included transepts 100ft in length, a crossing tower, a cloister 85ft square and a nave of unknown length. Remains of the building can be found in houses around the village.
E Bowman & Sons Ltd required scaffold to provide a working platform to all points of the monument to allow stone repairs. It was necessary to have the scaffold structure free-standing to protect the stonework which was already in a fragile state. |
