Well the sun is shining, and we are finally making progress on the outside. Here is a view of the house from across the lake - still very 'timber frame' green, but hopefully not for longer!
The 'shoulder' has been built and down the side the bricks are pretty much as far as they can go without the Quoins, which arrived this afternoon.
Here are the Quoins and sandstone for the windows, we have gone for a local reconstructed dark sandstone, which hopefully will match really well with teh bricks.
Inside the plaster board and kingspan is going up - and the rooms which seemed large as timber frame, smaller with the insulation, and then bigger again with the plaster are finally taking shape. The Electricians are off this week, so not all the plasterwork can be done, whilst we wait for the cables to be put in, hopefully completed by the end of April.
Finally the large center window in the hallway is taking shape, although with all the scaffolding and polythene protecting the frame, its very difficult to see the view and light coming through.
