It's been a very exciting week on site at Montagu Square. We made a few discoveries, a great insight into the past lives of the property thanks to a time capsule rich in history. As the builders lifted the floorboards, they found a collection of letters, maps and books hidden away since the 1950s. We will do our best not to read these beautiful letters (we did read 2...) whilst we try to locate their owner! The removal of plaster boards in another room revealed a fun tradition from previous builders, drinks cans left during tehir refurbishments, dating 1988, 1989 and 2004. And on a more 'usual' note, our attempts at restoring the stunning cornices was successful!
