Moat refloat

After a long dry spell, the ducks are once again back and swimming in our newly refilled moat.

The water is now running again under the Shine Dome’s curved bridges and tall arches after the moat was drained last year for repairs. It was then sandblasted and resealed to prevent leaks into the Dome’s basement archives with a new 20-year waterproof membrane.

So now with all our ducks in a row, the Shine Dome is back to her full glory!
