Progress in the sweltering heat

The medallion has been bricked into the dormer at the front of the library. It looks a little strange as the white stone forming the circle and compass points is covered with plastic and tape to protect it during the mortaring process. The medallion acts as a vent for the attic - with screen behind to stop our friends the bats from entering. This is a replica of the original that was in the dormer on the original south wall. There are plans to incoporate the original in the interior of the addition. The brick still needs to be capped at the top.



The masons are now working on the south side of the addition. Not a lot of shade here until about 3 in the afternoon.
