Ecclesiastical Ironwork > St. Paul's Cathedral

During 2003 - 4 the west front of St. Paul's Cathedral was fully restored, and we were priveleged to be asked to restore all of the metalwork, comprising small items such as boot scrapers, several original (17th to 18th century) window grilles to the large early twentieth century lanterns and their standards, which stand either side of the entrance steps.

While we were working on the outside of the building we were asked to do some emergency repairs to some rather difficult original mouldings in sheet iron, within the south aisle. These were done in charcoal iron by Baptiste Deleau and refitted in the cathedral within a week.
