Kitchen Floor
Sand and cemented all around the lower floor and covered the floor with hardcore and a layer of sand. |
Dining Room Floor
I think I said at one point that this should be an easier floor to take up than the previous two. Wrong. After removing the brick floor we found that the underfloor was a mixture of compacted earth and stone, not an easy combination to dig out with a shovel. Anyway it's nearly all out. A trip to the local tip for the last loads of earth. |
I forgot to add: these are the stones that came out of the floor. |

New Doorway
We've knocked a doorway through between the bathroom and the kitchen. We've put up oak uprights and a lintel and will brick around it. |
Another dry and sunny weekend. This time we mowed the back lawn for the first time. This will need to be top dressed and re-seeded to thicken up the grass. The top bit, where the beams and lawn mower are, is going to be a herb and salad garden.....eventually. |
