Monk Bar conservation
Scaffolding has been installed on the north and south sides of Monk Bar due to limestone surface deterioration caused by January’s cold weather. This is a natural aging process and does not affect the bar’s structural stability. The scaffolding platform is in place as a safety measure to catch any debris.
A conservation project is planned to inspect, secure, repair, and repoint the stonework as needed. The bar remains open as usual while the scaffolding is in place.
