Thank you Norman. It was an honour to install a plaque to Barbara Johnson to @birmingham's Tree Of Life memorial commemorating the #BLITZ on Birmingham during #WW2.

Good to see work is underway away to erect memorial tablet to #WWII BARRA member Barbara Johnson @Birmingham’s Tree of Life. Nice work by Veronica of @Mareva_Ltd. Think @mattfelkin & @Anita_Ward54 will agree...

The astonishing results from half way through cleaning the alabaster canopy stone on the 'Fullwood' memorial. #Mareva #conservation #memorial #stone #alabaster @NC_Conservation #coleshillparish @coleshillparish

@Bowermanland @NC_Conservation @coleshillparish We clean it to the level that allows the viewer to read the carving as it was originally intended. Homogeneous appearance of the whole object/memorial while considering all aesthetical and ethical issues is of utmost importance to us.

@warrenconserve @NC_Conservation @coleshillparish Thank you. Regarding conservation projects in North Wales ... I'll bear it in mind!
