It has taken rather longer than expected mainly cutting the stones seemed to take forever, but quite a lot of fiddly bits at the end still not quite finished - almost another week maybe yet?

Those are a bit random and can't be moved about so some of the main stages below.
They've uploaded in reverse order so go down then come back up ;)
Final bits - more concrete, retaining wall, BIG stone gatepost. Pot Plant! |
Soil replaced around foundations |
Mainly doors to do at last |
Inside larger room |
Windows in, roof well underway. |
Insulation all round seems a no-brainer in a relatively small building which will benefit from stable temperatures and minimal condensation |
More stone. Lintels from Eskdale Stone near Whitby |
Roof takes shape and stones going around from original wall remains |
Mud hut stage |
Early stages |
Concrete raft foundation as there was all kinds of soft ground and rubble. |
Rebuilding the corner bottom left |
Rough shed over partly demolished stone pig stys |
