The small village of Apsley Guise is one of the most ancient in Bedfordshire. Its name dates back to the 10th century and, whilst none of the village’s current buildings were constructed before the Tudor period, it has more than its fair share of historic architecture. Quite apart from the 18th century Manor House, the Rectory, and the Guise House, there are no less than 26 Georgian listed properties across the village.
For the Logic Plastering team, it’s a delight to find ourselves working in this extraordinary village. Whilst most of the properties we provide plastering services for were built in the 20th, and 21st century, we always consider ourselves in distinguished historic company.
Whilst coving is becoming more and more popular, there’s still some confusion around what it is. Coving is a decorative finish, which also has a practical function. It’s used to cover the angle between the ceiling and the wall. It serves the practical purpose of covering small cracks that can occur in this area as the result of heat expansion. Decoratively, coving disperses the sharpness of the 90º angle, and creates a bridging C shaped curve between the ceiling and wall which is pleasing to the eye.
Visit any heritage property and your eye will, at some point, be drawn to the elegant coving that has been used to ‘finish’ the plasterwork in the room. However elaborate, it’s actually serving a practical purpose. Coving covers up the settlement cracks that can occur due to heat expansion on the ceiling and walls. It forms a decorative bridge, whilst eliminating potential flaws in the plaster finish.
