Dry rot or tommyrot?

At least between the years 1967 and 1969, again between 1976 and 1979 the Dominicans spent large sums of money attempting to eradicate dry rot at Pope's Quay in Cork city.

Maybe they need to realise it's difficult, almost impossible, to dress in the Dominican habit while carrying out major works.

Does it all smell of nonsense?
