Stonemasons Marcus Wainwright and Craig Holden help place a Hebel, or aerated concrete, pediment at the former Dunedin Prison.
The 120-year-old Victorian-style courtyard facility designed by John Campbell was decommissioned in 2007, and is being redeveloped to its original appearance.
Architectural conservator Guy Williams said pediments were being refitted to the north and south cell block gables.
They were last known to have been in place on the building in 1951, but by 1957 had been removed.
The pediments were still in place on the roof of the Dunedin Prison building in the 1951 Evening Star icluded in the slideshow.
