The Extension – Update Number 4 (Actual walls)

Last Updated on 29 March 2019 by Colette

It’s now a few months since work started on our extension and I’ve been promising an update for about two of them – as it’s mainly going to be in pictures I’m going to do this across a few posts . . .

So here is part four . . .

Early July brought with it scorching sunshine and a week of brickwork – both were exciting!  Ben and Chloe were even able to lay a brick each!  They have marked their bricks with finger prints in the mortar so they will always be able to see which they were.
