Abstract
⺠We investigated green algal biofilms on four sandstone heritage structures in Belfast. ⺠The relationships among greening and environmental variables were complex. ⺠Green biofilms had little or no impact on the physical integrity of building stone. ⺠The influence of green biofilms on moisture levels in stone may be bioprotective.
