  • 19th-century romantic restoration: aimed to reimagine medieval aesthetics.
  • Modern conservation: focuses on minimal intervention and material compatibility.

Materials & techniques

  • Lime mortars, compatible stone repairs, and careful jointing preserve breathability.
  • Preventive maintenance — clearing vegetation, controlling water run-off, and monitoring masonry movement.
