5.1 Lot technical ID : LOT-0002

Title : Lot 2: Standard natural history mount conservation
Description : This work will involve the remedial conservation of 19th, 20th and 21st century natural history mounted specimens, including taxidermy, skeletons, casts and dried vertebrate specimens. These mounts are here referred to as “standard” to differentiate them from complex and/or large mounts covered in Lot 1, which will require additional specialist equipment and experience to work on. Appendix A lists complex and/or large mounts to provide context. We envisage this to include in the region of 5,000 specimens over the course of the Conservation Phase of the project, although many of these may only require condition assessment and not treatment. Work packages to facilitate the stabilisation of some specimens for transport during the Decant Phase may also be issued if required
