Aperçu

Join us at the Courthouse Gallery & Studios (CHG&S) in Ennistymon for a unique event led by Eóin Madigan, a sixth-generation stonemason and lime practitioner from North Clare. This free demonstration will focus on pointing techniques using traditional lime mortar, providing practical insights into sustainable mortar techniques.

Eóin will use the Courthouse as a backdrop and examples from its upcoming façade restoration, funded by The Heritage Council . This event offers a rare opportunity to observe sustainable mortar techniques in action and learn from a master craftsman dedicated to conserving built heritage.

Attendees can choose either a morning or afternoon session, with both sessions covering the same content. This demonstration is ideal for homeowners, professionals, students, and anyone interested in traditional building practices and architectural conservation.
This event is kindly funded by The Heritage Council.
