Identifying Caen Stone for Remedial Work

Abstract This short case study examines the problems associated with the identification of the stone types used in the construction and repair of Cloister Court at the Palace of Westminster, London. It draws attention to the difficulties of identifying appropriate replacement stones where the structure contains both original medieval Caen Stone, as well as replacement Caen Stone and a number of other replacement limestones, and provides a practical illustration of the importance of understanding the petrography of Caen Stone as described in the paper by Tim Palmer in this volume.
