Our builders laid a small foundation outside the cottage door and then built some brick work for a new oak porch. This was being made by an oak craft man called David Clooney who had also constructed the roof beams for our extension.
The brickwork on the cottage was old and very bad but the builders removed the old pointing and re pointed it leaving an area for the new porch roof.
Once the oak porch was fitted the builders added the slate and lead and it was finally finished. I was so happy with it that I came several times that evening to have another look! We have ordered a new front door as the old one has seen better days!
