On the ground, work has almost been completed on the three Hierarchs. These were taken down, cleaned, some minor damages touched up. A protective semi-matt varnish was applied. Finally the glass was cleaned and they are now ready for installation.
Many of the paintings in the iconostasis have been taken down for conservation. These are in the process of being cleaned. It is expected that that the icons will be cleaned, stabilised and re-installed gradually over the next few weeks.
