Image shows two of the lower tie ropes, which will support the new roof, being held by temporary clamps. Once all the tie ropes are in place then they are tensioned with hydraulic jacks. This image was taken when the temporary clamps were in place but before the second pair of tie ropes and the hydraulic jacks were fitted.
