It was a delight to see our frames for the new Camery at Wells Cathedral going up last week.  The building will provide facilities for resident and visiting choirs to practice and for musical education and study.  The timber frame comprises 11 arched brace cross frames and was erected in two phases to work in with the overall project programme.  The site is incredibly tight for space with barely enough room for our team to set out the frame and then still be able to get the crane in position for the lift.  Having said this I know that the team on site led by Team Leader John Lam were extremely pleased with the end result and with having the opportunity to work on such a prestigious project.
