College of Arms

The College of Arms, the official heraldic authority for the UK, occupies a fine 17th century building in the City of London.

The brickwork has suffered from cement pointing, poor quality repairs and layers of paint and dirt.

The decision was made to repoint the entire building, strip the paint to reveal the original stonework, and to re-establish the tuck pointing on the central panels of the courtyard elevations.

The fine architectural quality of the elevations has now been revealed.
