Work beginnings again in 2012, we now have all the external windows and doors fitted and are laying the floor boards. We are waiting on a delivery of roof insulation which will be the next job we tackle.
Over the past week the carpenters have been working on the internal area of the cabin as well as starting the external painting. Electricians and Heating Engineers have started work and we have also started to add the cavity wall installation.

There was some rumours going around the village that the build had broken its planning permission, so we had a visit from the planning officer who did a site check and confirmed we had not broken the agreement and the build was as it should be.
