Ring that bell for whatever it's worth
16-06-2008


The new mezzanine office level, oh the longing for the warm space in winter.


Stumpy remians, being left of course, gotta have a bit of character.


Some temporary lighting, although not much worse than we're used to!


I do like these window openers.


The new AV balcony, soon to full of sound and light equipment.


Stairs, who would have thunk it.


A non too wide shot of downstairs.


Another non too wide shot from the other end.


A big wooly jumper for the building.


An ad-hoc marker for where the wood-pellet boiler will be.


The builder's main tool?


One of the re-opened windows, from the outside.

Their walls are built of cannonballs, their motto is "Don't tread on me"
19-05-2008


An army of scoffolding.


Sheeps wool insulation being build into the roof.


Cannonballs and girders.


Reinstating the original windows.


Looks a lot bigger since the interior dividing wall came down.

If you ain't got a hinge, you can't close the door
27-04-2008

Duckett Building Services have now started to rip out the old interior of the barn ready for installation of the new facilities. What will be unearthed? Who knows......


Who put a fuse box 4/5 of the way up a wall?


The old barn doors have been dug out the concrete and opened up once more.


What was underneath those chillingly awful concrete flag stones? More concrete.


Only a few more cobbles to come up. They will of course be saved and used elsewhere on site.


The wiring in there was always rather dodgy....


And so was the plumbing.


No comment of this tap...... zap.


Poignant, rather poignant.


The old and the really old.

04-12-2007

We now have three quarters of a phoneline into the mill! Two sections of underground cabling and four phone poles. Trouble is, they still don't connect up to anything at either end....

update
We now have a fully functioning phoneline. Our new number, direct to the mill is 015395 64271.
