This blog has been set up to record the restoration of Ashgrove, which was devastated by fire in August 2007.
Please add comments of encouragement (or even suggestions for the colour of the walls, carpets, tiles, furniture....!!)

The new lounge bay arrives!

More plumbing progress with the installation of showers, heated towel rails, and mirrors, etc.

Also, ceiling rose installed in hallway.

Front door looks good freshly painted, and new glass in front windows reflects the greenery.

First sight of new bay today, duly scrutinised by Celia. Three-man erection team soon had it fixed in position.

Not an exact replica of original bay in some very minor details, but perhaps less vulnerable to the weather because of that. Should be judged on its overall impression when it has been roofed, glazed and fully painted. I am confident that it will not let us down.
