The House Build Begins!

After years of deliberations, plans, advice, more deliberations, decisions and more plans, we have finally made some good progress on Elly Cottage! So far:
  • we've had our plans agreed (after initial plans were refused) - using Carl Jenkins as Architect Technician.
  • Mr Dunkley moved out (renting garage to do up cars) end of July 2020.
  • had a digger (Philly) round to remove earth from around the barn and move it up to Margie's top field
  • had trees taken down (Roots.im) in Margie's garden that were blocking light on the barn - took 1 day, felled, cut up and cleaned up. Great job!
  • put in for our building regs (using Guy Hatton)
  • jet washed the inside of the barn to remove the limewash
  • in process of getting land signed over from Margie to us (using Long & Humphrey)
And so far this week:
  • Glenn has started removing the tiles from the roof
  • We have a digger coming tomorrow to remove more earth, Margie's oil tank and lay the oil pipes.
Finally starting to see some progress! Here's a few photos to show where we're up to...I'll try and keep the blog updated as we go along 🙂
