The Lime Centre has four interesting and informative PDF files on lime on its website which are worth reading.

Topics covered are wash, plastering, render and mortar.

Then choose document library from the menu.

The information about aggregates is worth reading also.

Here's more about aggregates:

Womersleys have a number of technical guides on the website, including lime applications.

Rather than separate and put individual links here's a direct link to the entire page:

and it is a big file.
