…..and the footings dug. We need the building inspector to give it the OK tomorrow and then the footings will be laid on Friday. Work will then start early next week rebuilding it, but this time with a proper cavity wall and a concrete slab floor (rather than flagstones laid directly onto the earth below). It will be great to start building things rather than just knocking them down! I can’t wait.
Walls removed and the footings dug ready for the concrete on Friday.
The walls now have been completely removed and the footings dug. Once the wall has been built up to ground level, the soil and debris from the centre will be used to backfill the rest of the trench.
Oops! We need to get this replaced, but we will reattach the plate to the wall once re-built as a temporary measure. It used to be against the wall along the road. When the wall was removed, so was this.
