Frontage

Front patio and rockery area is taking shape.

40 tons of good topsoil will arrive soon to fill the two corner areas. Lyn is looking forward to planting those up and putting in some artfully placed stones, and of course in a nod to the trees that populated this area for 30 years, these lovely silver birches..

Can't tell from this pic, but they are 4m tall.

The rest of the patio area will be porcelain tiles like the one in the first pic.

More soon

Update

Work has now started on the patio and decking which will surround the house, so that won't take too long.

I need to do a final montage of the time lapse stuff, which involves loads of photos and images from the last 3 years. I'll get on that right away.

Here's Lyn's latest photo, taken today on the way home from Benchmark Building Supplies in Romiley, to show our delight at finding the right tiles for the patio. A sample is in the background, but I think the photo just illustrates how well the colour goes with her eyes, and hair. Must be feeling romantic :)

Montage will appear here soon, don't miss it it'll be ace.
