Church at Kirkapol
This ruined medieval church at Kirkapol on the Isle of Tiree, the most westerly of the Inner Hebrides. The conservation project, in which Robin Kent Architecture & Conservation collaborated with Carruthers Conservation, included archaeology and innovative structural interventions using specially formed stainless steel armatures to support the E wall over early burials that had undermined its foundations; 'soft' walltopping using puddled clay and local turf, and careful repointing using lime based mortars. The project included the nearby ancient chapel.
