These rather confusing pictures show what might turn out to be a really important find among the cladding boards from Network Rail's Appleby shed, which we think may be a former navvy hut.
Top left shows a board with limewash on it. On closer inspection the layers of limewash cover what appears to be a newspaper or other printed material - perhaps used as windproofing wallpaper or maybe displayed inside the shed. We are in touch with conservators to see if we can remove and restore the printed paper in the hope it will yield dating clues.
