After the fire at Windsor Castle, who repaired the ceiling of St. Georges Hall?

mk2norwich

One source I found says that the whole of St. George's Hall, ceiling included, was reconstructed by 'over 1,500' craftsmen. This, and other sources, says that Prince Philip oversaw the restoration project. http://www.geographia.com/etc/Britain/Britaina.htm May 23 03, 7:03 PM

A new ceiling has been built from 140 green oak trees to replace the destroyed Georgian one. The carpentry involved was 'like an exercise in doing one of those Chinese wooden jigsaw puzzles' according to the Architect Giles Downes. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/32057.stm May 23 03, 10:29 PM
