Entrance Screens The new Elizabeth Line (formerly the Crossrail Project), has screens on every sub-surface platform. These screens offer digital advertising and information about the passengers. The initial entrance screen of the City of London Cemetery consisted of a typical construction of Kentish Ragstone wall and Caen stone copings with decorative carved elements. The stone was originally encased in Portland cement but this proved less than ideal as the acid rain of the 19th Century caused carbonates to decompose and sulphate-crystallisation accelerated the decay of limestones such as Caen. Nanolime was employed to slow down the complicated combination of decay mechanisms that were causing the central panel to deteriorate. This has slowed the necessity of costly replacement of stones and also provided a soothing alternative to more aggressive chemical consolidants.
