Figure 21 View from bow after the waterline plate had been fitted 213
Once the treatment of the topsides had been completed the glass waterline plate could be fitted. Various measures were required to stabilise the dock and to protect the caisson which had not been moved for thirty years! The dock floor was also provided with foundation pads for the support steelwork for the glass plates and the new steel shores. The external dehumidification plant was also installed in the dry dock before the glass plate was fitted. A second plant of equivalent size was manufactured in demountable elements and fitted inside the ship. The aim of most conservation exercises is to conserve the object at the same time as minimising the intervention. Clearly in the case of the Great Britain the intervention was to be significant. Nevertheless the aim was to minimise the visual impact of the environmental changes that were needed. Conclusion In both cases, a number of key factors dictated the conservation treatment of both objects. The bridge had to be used for vehicular purposes. In effect, its treatment was determined by the functional needs of Fort Brockhurst as a whole and not the conservation needs of the bridge in isolation. This was continuing a trend begun when the first of the inelegant strengthening schemes was put into effect. A desire to improve the physical appearance of the bridge in relation to the fort was an understandable factor in the choice of treatment. Another was the desire to minimise the risk of intervention being required in the near future. Although metal spraying can be regarded as the most long-lived form of treatment for outdoor iron and steel (other than environmental control) it is very intrusive, particularly when applied to riveted structures. However when balanced against a desire for cost-beneficial treatment and a simple improvement, the form of treatment can be seen as both ethical and desirable. The treatment of the ss Great Britain in the early part of the 21 st century represented a complete change in how she was viewed. This was bought about in large measure by the Heritage Lottery Fund’s decision to fund the appointment of a fulltime professional curator and to provide a budget for a serious review of the ship. These measures 214 not only resulted in conservation-led treatment proposal but also an increasing understanding of the importance of the whole of the ship’s working life. This led to her designation as a museum object, to be conserved as such, and to her becoming the heart of a “Victorian dockyard”. Paradoxically this appeared to conflict with the legal situation. For as a built structure of heritage significance the dock had been given ‘listed’ status whereas as a moveable object the ship was not. This meant that various legal constraints which applied to the dock did not apply to the ship. In the event however, the dock received rather more intrusive treatment than the ship. These compromises were in part due to the fact that various engineering works were required to stabilise the dock (to safeguard both ship and dock) but also due the fact that the conservation needs of the ship imposed the additional requirements for the treatment of the dock (e.g. foundations for the waterline plate steelwork and dehumidification plant and the control of flowing water in the dock). It is interesting to contemplate what other compromises might have be considered if the conservation management plan had not been able to attribute such overwhelming significance to the ship.
