Roof stage one - complete!

Well, the builders signed off with us on Friday - a few post-slating jobs, but the main work is done. 

The walls and chimneys are rebuilt, 
the roof timbers are on, 
waterproof membrane and laths are on

After many many years, the roof is waterproof a last!


all the structure renewed - fantastic

the waterproof membrane goes on

very fine - chimney pots with rain - and crow -proof cowl!

from the back - with three spaces for roof widows, over the stairs

from the front

a fine sight from the 'woods'

so long to our big green machine!

the salvage yard - by Easter next year this will be our new elevated terrace!
