Abandoned, Then Embraced: The Kinsol Trestle

 

 

TRANSCRIPT

Part of good heritage conservation, or good heritage conservation practice, is making the new wood distinguishable from the old. We're not trying copy the wood exactly, we're not trying to make it look exactly like the old wood. We want to be able to tell, and we want the average person to be able to tell, what's new and what's old. As the new wood ages and becomes closer in patina to the old wood, that would get more and more challenging.
