Demolition is complete



After a busy two weeks demolition of the old farmhouse was completed today. I cannot speak too highly of the small team from Winchcombe Reclamation – pleasant, proficient and professional.



Demolition complete 28 Jan 2012
Whilst bricks were removed and cleaned by hand, a Merlo telehandler with a self levelling cab and a 17 tonne JCB excavator helped clear the remaining hardcore.  Large numbers of bricks & tiles have been reclaimed as well as many of the old beams. Thanks to heavy overnight rain the site is now a quagmire but the strong winds characteristic of the site should soon dry it out.

Research continues on bricks, tiles, septic tanks, triple glazed windows and solar thermal system Technical updates will follow in due course.
