There is going to be a parapet wall between Jo’s study and the stairwell.  This will be stud work that is plastered with an oak handrail.  There will be an oak upright post in the middle connected to the king post truss above.  The stud work was installed this weekend.

There is going to be a small parapet wall in Jo's office.  There is an oak handrail to go on the top, but for now we have installed it for health and safety reasons.

The view from the stairwell.  The gap in the middle of the parapet wall is to accomodate an oak post that will connect with the king post truss above.
