Another update, and things are going up ... walls that is

Another attempt at posting an update after the last one which suffered from a myriad of internal errors and the whole blogger site reverting to German which I haven't spoken in 20 years. ...

Anyway, took a quick diversion out to the site (building not web) on Friday night on the way back from picking my car up from the mechanics (which could be the subject of a whole other blog) and took some more pictures.
Unfortunately, I must confess that I didn't have my main camera with me so was reduced to using my mobile which, whilst normally excellent, struggled here with the late evening gloom contrasted by the blinding sunset behind !

Was pleased to see that the piles of bricks from the previous shots have been put to good use in the construction of the walls.



The back wall seems to have gone up the furthest where the kitchen and utility will be as they are the straightest, the ones at the front accomodate two bay windows so obviously must take longer to get right. You can just see the low wall of the conservatory on the left hand side.

The following (frankly crap) pictures show the layout of the whole site in relation to our house -



From left to right, the first two houses are nearly complete as these were started ages ago. The third is nearing the roof line with ours, almost out of view at the end.

There are two designs of house making up the 4, and they can be seen from the finished ones on the left.

Ours is going to be the same as the second one along (from the left)
Finally a view across to Beam Hill



I'll try now and get some floorplans up so we can see what they are trying to acheive internally as well...

Hopefully next time, conditions and equipment will provide some better photos !

Until the next time.
