Will bleach damage cemetery headstones?
Yes, bleach can damage cemetery headstones, particularly those made of porous materials like limestone or marble. The harsh chemicals in bleach can cause discoloration, deterioration, and can weaken the stone over time. It's best to use gentler cleaning solutions specifically designed for stone care to preserve the integrity of the headstone. Always consult with cemetery guidelines or a professional conservator before attempting any cleaning.
Names of the stonemasons who built Waverley Cemetery?
By "Stone Masons" we assume you refer to Monumental Stone Masons - the contractors and artisans who create individual memorials. Well Waverley Cemetery Is a business and the establishemnt and growth of the business has involved a great number of contractors to the business over the least 130+ years. The individual memorials as a collective might seem like good luck but the stles and class of memorial permitted in the cemetery has always been at the direction of the Cemetery Management. Waverley has always had a policy of predominant standstone and white marble monumentation. This continues today. The infrastructure of the site was designed to meet the challenging location, retaining walls of local stone (quarried on the site), the earliest recorded use of macadam roads in a Sydney cemetery, and advanced drainage techniques are all testiment to Victorian Sydneys technical ability. www.waverley.nsw.gov.au/cemetery
