They knew how to build walls properly in the early 1800s! Huge boulders and lime cement meant it took two men with hammers and chisels a day and a half to knock through this section.
So when's the new window coming?

Apparently there is a three month lagtime between orders and delivery on custom windows from Denmark...visions of December snows blowing straight in!
One way to see what's on the other side of a wall!

Wondering what the view to the pond garden would look like without a wall in the way, is fine until you voice your thoughts to the Leader of The Opposition!
Eventually there will be a sliding 2m x 2.4m sliding glass window here.

"RoofShield" Finally (nearly) watertight, again.

For those of you of a non-technical bent, Roof Shield is a nearly waterproof membrane placed above sarking boards (google?) and under slates, which permits airflow into roof spaces.
In England, slates are nailed to narrow battens, with gaps between them, whereas in Scotland the roof is covered in planking (sarking), prior to slating. Amazing what you learn, interrogating your builders!
Need new planking for your roof?
