Restoration Update - August 2013

More photos of the restoration work that has been taking place during late July and August.
The repairs are still on schedule, with the cap now due to go back on in late August and the sails going on in October or November.
All 4 sails are now complete and are in our Millwrights workshop in Lincolnshire awaiting the shutters. The volunteer Shutter Team have almost made enough shutters for 2 sailsIf you would like to help make the new shutters (at the museum) contact Ann Wise, Volunteer Coordinator -volunteers@burwellmuseum.org.uk
