I have been away from site for the past couple of days and it is great to get back to see that some real progress has been made on the extension. A lot of progress has been made on building up the external walls. This can be slow as it involves reclaimed stone rather than concrete blocks.
Unfortunately, when I arrived on site today, so too did the rain. This means that the stone work is all covered up with hessian to prevent the sand and cement getting too wet.
We will have to wait until another day to see what lurks beneath.
The new stonework is hidden under the hessian, but the external wall to the front of the kitchen and the porch is starting to take shape.
This is the side wall of the new porch and we are starting to get a sneak preview at the stone work that lies beneath the hessian.
