HIGHFORCE SCAFFOLDING
- GETTING PROJECTS OFF THE GROUND
Barnard Castle is known for its Ginnels, the narrow pathways between houses from the cobbled market to surrounding streets. At the end of such a Ginnel, where Queen Street meets Birch Road, for the thin pavement scaffolding was tied in to the wall and tucked safely away from vehicles cutting the tight corner.
This was one of a series of scaffolds needed for various maintenance
projects around a large and historic property in Barnard Castle. There is always a protruding bay or two to work around on these interesting buildings. That and of course bats to protect and work around; conservation and restoration.
Restoration work at at Teesdale Farm needed access to a far chimney. The scaffolding tower and access platform up, over and across to a secured platform for the right-hand stack gave another unique view across the dale, this time East towards the sea.
