Ha! Very nice (and good to see Panter with a hose in his hand and not a chopper :-)
The Seahenge timbers were (also) conserved at the Mary Rose conservation lab. The conservation process that Panter describes does the job but the downside is that it darkens the wood and makes it look a bit ‘plastic’. If they’ve stuck to correct conservation procedures though the conservation/consolidation process can be reversed if a better treatment can be found in the future.
