Dithering ton Flax Maltings is an internationally significant historic site and has architectural, socio-economic and cultural heritage importance. Between 1797 and present day the site experienced 3 distinct evolutionary phases all of which have contributed to the archaeology and current identity of the buildings and their past use. Having been designed and built in 1796 – 1780 as a Spinning Mill incorporating an innovative internal iron frame the site was in 1897 converted and expanded to become a maltings which finally closed in 1987. The site then experienced a period of at risk uncertainty until the formation of a public – private partnership stakeholder initiative was tasked with developing a long-term regeneration project for targeted adaptive reuse to safe-guard the future preservation of the site, its context and physical assets.

After 7 challenging months ICR successfully completed the interior conservation of this important historic ship. Working in close partnership with The National Museum of The Royal Navy and its project team, ICR endued cramped and logistically demanding conditions to deliver a bespoke low interventive conservation strategy which was ground breaking in scale and thought provoking in method.

As part of 500-year anniversary celebrations at St Machar’s Cathedral Church (Old Aberdeen), Scottish Wall Paintings Conservators were invited to carry out conservation treatment on 48 heraldic shields and other painted elements of the oak ceiling. The ceiling decoration was commissioned in 1520 by Bishop Gavin Dunbar, whose shield can be found in the central 'church' line of the ceiling. St Machar's heraldry is unique - located in the extremities of Christendom, and despite being a Protestant church since 1560, the heraldic arms of the Pope still survives on the ceiling. The shields are arranged in three lines – one for James V and the nobles of Scotland, one for the kings and queens of Europe, and a church line headed by the Pope. The ceiling and accompanying frieze had been heavily restored and overpainted by the Victorians. More recently, they had been treated by Historic Scotland's (now HES) conservators in1990. Over the past couple of decades a coating of white efflorescence had developed on the ceiling/frieze surfaces, and there was concern that this may be mold or fungus growth.
