Once the new ladder ironwork has had the mounts fixed in place, the ladders will go away to have a three-part protective finish applied using the same technology that protects wind farm platforms.
In the meantime, two more ironwork jobs remain. The repair of damaged handrails and the replacement of mooring rings on the Old Quay itself.
The replacement handrail posts are currently with Canon’s Town based Pencarn Forge who are awaiting the delivery of a small batch of wrought iron bar with which to complete the missing handrail sections, including new curled ends that match the others for the Red Lion Slip section.
