By Accumen Shapes
This historical building with majestic mouldings was originally constructed in 1884. Due to 128 years of exposure to the elements, the building was completely dismantled and reconstructed, including using some of the original bricks. Accumen Shapes proudly recreated the decorative mouldings to match the original designs. The building, which was once the Mason’s Lodge No 52, has now been brought back to life with the aid of some very skilful tradespeople, and is now ready for the finishing touches.
