Week starting 26th January - onwards and upwards!

Even though the whole site looks as if a tidal wave has been over it, with lots of storm debris and very wet underfoot, things have moved on.

First of the roof timbers are on and ready for the arrival of the insulation which was meant to arrive this Thursday and is now due Tuesday of next week!

Some of the block work has been built up to on the peaks to support the main beams. The final load of stone cills and heads have arrived these are being put in place and rebated (ready for shutters). One huge head in particular is ready for going over the french doors from the salon out to the covered terrace. This will be moved and lifted with the digger. (Now on and appearing in one of the photos below).

The terracotta tiles have also arrived, these are going to be used to create the detail (along with the curved tuilles/tiles) just under the roof line - a detail typical to the region.

At the very end of the week the scaffold was moved from one end of the building to the other ready for the final completion of the stonework on the remaining gable end.
