Perched atop a a 40′ ladder is not my idea of fun when it comes to chinking but you do what you have to do. Im not afraid of heights by any means - its just an awkward place to work.
A section of chinking was found to be loose way atop the north face. The 100 year old chinking had begun to give way and needed to be replaced. Had it been at eye level that would be fine but this was a foot below the roof line along the chimney. Oh well.
