Following a welcome by Robert “King” Carter, FHCC President Steve Harris honored the visionary efforts of those who created the Foundation in 1958. Harris especially cited Helen Duprey Bullock, an esteemed architectural and culinary historian, who in March 1958 attended the second meeting of what would become FHCC. “No one outside the county will care who I was,” Calling Christ Church “nationally significant[,] one of the greatest Carter remarked, “but I am remembered because the historic churches in America and in pristine condition,” Bullock Foundation has preserved this church.

Historic Christ Church & Museum | ChristChurch1735.org 1 ed by Russell Mait, the Preservation Committee has been working diligently to develop a remedy to the problem Lof rising damp that threatens Christ Church. Rising damp is the process by which ground water moves vertically and horizontally into building materials like brick, mortar and stone by capillary action and rises in these materials before being evaporated. The height of the rising damp is at a point when the rate of evaporation is in balance Preservation (equilibrium) with the rate of capillary action drawing water into the building. As rising damp pulls water up, it carries salts from the soil, depositing them as horizontal stains or “tide marks” at the equilibrium point. These salts penetrate exterior walls, causing the deterioration of mortar joints and stone elements like sills, pedestals and imposts. Moisture Committee and salts from rising damp can also impact interior features like woodwork and plaster, as is the case at Christ Church. Guided by scientific studies that included subsurface soil investigations, a topographical survey to determine surface water drainage, and interior moisture readings, Mait and a team from ITAC, an engineering firm in Chester, Virginia, Takes On have developed a storm water management system that uses perimeter drains and sump pumps to intercept and capture water around the church building and yard before diverting it to areas northwest and southeast of the churchyard. This active system includes a “state-of-the-art” smart control system that allows for monitoring moisture Rising Damp in the church walls and soil. This exciting project will require archaeological explorations in the drainage areas, presenting HCC&M a unique opportunity to learn more about the builder’s trench and related activities during Christ Church’s construction.

PLASTER DETERIORATION Rising damp can also impact interior elements like paneling and plaster. In a failed attempt in 1933 to combat moisture, workmen parged the interior of each wall with Portland cement from the bottom of the crawl space up to the top of the wainscot around the pews. This photo from October 1965 shows the result: because nothing was done to remove the sources of ground water, rising damp continued, now moving higher and damaging the plaster just above the wainscot. Most of the plaster along the top of the wainscot would be replaced. RISING DAMP MECHANISMS Armed with soil, surface drainage and moisture surveys, Russell Mait identified the sources, pathways and mechanisms of the water impacting Christ Church. In this graphic Mait shows how an impervious clay layer beneath the church encourages rain water to migrate up into the brick foundation as rising damp.
