Re: Re: Decentralisation and the Customs House

Interesting that Farmleigh and the Custom House be mentioned in the same thread. As I wondering if any one new why the idea of using a type of Portland cement made of crushed Portland stone could not be used on the existing drumof the Custom House in the same way that Farmleigh is rendered. It is rather a quick fix and perhaps it would clash with genuinne Portland stone. Its just that the 1991 conservation work was an ideal time to carry out such work. Can anyone shed any light on the idea?
