Work to improve the front garden is taking far longer than expected, mainly due to the difficulty in obtaining materials during the Pandemic. We are awaiting the railings and the stones for the pillars etc Completion by end August seems possible.

The Conservation Area Appraisal highlights the current setting as having a Negative impact on the Conservation Area. Our builders have spent the last month or so changing the boundary of the parking area, making more solid the ground by the wall at the rear left side where. An initial tarmac layer has now been applied to the new areas.  Bricks have started to be delivered.  Work will start again in earnest in January.  Once the new brick walls have been constructed the railings will be commissioned and then planting undertaken. A final finishing coat of tarmac will then be applied to the whole surface of the car park.

 

Work in progress images (March & July) are  below.  The caps of the walls and the pillars are in reconstituted Bath Stone. The  railings  may take a further 2 months to be installed (supply issues).  Work  on  landscaping will be undertaken once all building work is completed.
