The house that Jack built - pt2 29 Sept 2016

Day2 of housebuild was lost due to the second lorry being lost, or at least late. So no work today, site closed and I can go cycling.
Day3 of housebuild, second lorry arrives, as does new larger crane, and by half past ten half the house is up. By the end of the day, internal and external walls are up, and those windows not pre-fitted [most of the small/medium ones were installed in factory] were lifted into the house along with front doors.

The first section is lifted in - east wall with front door and small lounge windows.

A bigger and better crane is here for Day2

North wall with small windows in service rooms overlooking the street, and the front door in East wall.
The crane also uplifted various materials such as the Baumit lime render, 50 'railway sleepers' from which I shall construct small supporting walls around the house where it has been sunk into the landscape.

We were allowed to use the golf course maintenance area, which lies behind/below the house to site the crane and offload materials, which was an enormous advantage which I am sure the contractor will recognize with an appropriate donation.
