Victoria Fountain at the Playing Close gets a spruce-up!

Charlbury Town Council has arranged for the fountain to be cleaned using a specialist method called DOFF cleaning – that’s a gentle but very effective steam-based process which removes dirt, algae and moss without damaging the historic stone.

🗓 Here’s the timetable:

Mon 22 Sept – scaffolding goes up

Tues 23 & Wed 24 Sept – cleaning work takes place

Thurs 25 / Fri 26 Sept – scaffolding comes down

Thanks for bearing with us while this important restoration work is carried out – we can’t wait to see the fountain looking its best again! 💧
