Marking Out the Site

June 2017

View across the Old Mill Pond towards the house site

Clive Gough and Sarah Weidmann help mark out the external walls

Fencing posts are driven into the ground to anchor the strings used to mark out the walls of the house

Peter mans the digger ready to clear the site and move the topsoil

First ground broken on site!

The site sits on fairly steep slope. Facing south and overlooking the Old Mill Pond, Peter plans to take advantage of the views and sun with large floor to ceiling windows. 

Site cleared ready for putting in the drainage and preparing the foundations
