Lathwork
Lathwork refers to the timber laths that where traditionally used as a backing for lime plaster on a timber frame typically an internal partition wall, screen or to the underside of a timber ceiling.
These two pictures below are of an existing external stone wall to a church which had a timber lining on the inside.
The first picture illustrates where the damaged laths and supporting frame were repaired and the plaque reinstated.
​
The second picture shows the finished wall, rendered using NHL haired lime undercoats with a lime putty finish and ashlar joints etched in the surface to match the existing finish.
