Here’s your Wednesday update on the restoration project at the Old Tolland County Court House Museum:
This week, the replacement wood and the epoxy treatment on the columns has finished curing.
The heavy plastic wrap has been removed. You can see the complete column.
The final old leaf gilding has been applied to the weathervane.
New timbers for inside work have been delivered. More on that next Wednesday.
The Tolland Historical Society is continuing to raise money to cover an unexpected $24,000 cost to deal with the rotting timbers inside the bell tower.
Donations can be made online at www.tollandhistorical.org or by mail to Tolland Historical Society, P.O. Box 107, Tolland, CT 06084. Thank you in advance for a gift of any size.
