After significant funds were raised via Save Hadlow Tower Action Group, Heritage Lottery funding, and generous locals, the derelict folly – built in the 1840s, was set to be restored to its former glory.
Working alongside carvers and designers, ASC ltd. replaced all of the missing enrichments. Along with flowers, leaves and spirulettes, we formed new, larger pieces, including the rose window, the pinnacles and the castellations around the magnificent tower.
The material we used on this project was Prompt, a hardy, fast-setting material from Grenoble, France which serves as the modern-day equivalent to old Roman cement.
Hadlow Tower has recently become an award winner, securing the much coveted Angel Award presented by Lord Lloyd-Webber.
