June – Portico Roof Repaired!
The slate roof has been failing on this Assistant Keepers Quarter’s portico for some years. The flashing was damaged, tiles missing, wood exposed. With the eventual reroof of the building remaining TBD, the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) approved using asphalt shingles as an interim solution.
Volunteer Jim Greenwall took on this job on his recent stay. Thanks Jim, Mike & James for your work this week.
