Positioning the Timber Plates Over The East Wing Columns

These images show the restoration craftsmen putting one of the large timber plates in place atop the columns which run along the front of the east wing.  Similar plates have been put in place along all of the east wing walls (as shown below).  These plates will serve as the foundation for the roof joists.
