Repairs To A Celing Using Traditional Lime Plaster

A water leak had caused damage to a ceiling in the room below. This original ceiling (the house is Victorian, built in 1880) had been constructed with wooden laths, then plastered with base coats of Lime Render Plaster (ie a mixture of Lime, Sand & Horsehair), then a top coat of Lime Finish plaster. If possible I like to repair these old ceilings using the exact same materials.
The photos here show how this was acheived.
