ROMAN BATHS PLASTER
Its hard to remember that the Roman Baths was once a complete range of buildings that were used and developed over three centuries, being decorated and refurbished many times. After this period the buildings were robbed of their materials and what was left was levelled and buried for centuries. The damp soil of the spring was a stable environment for these ruins but when they began to be seriously uncovered during the 1870's the remains were exposed to the air and started to deteriorate. The decay continues to this day. Nimbus was asked to provide a method of repair and protection for the remaining plaster that would slow this deterioration. In Consultation with Professor Baker we evolved a method. The same view Top 1890 / 1990 the bottom pair 1890 / 1960.
