The great concrete wall of Westonzoyland

Further block work this past weekend has got the toilet wall up to wall plate height along its length. The other walls are a bit slower to build as they have a few openings and require steel lintels to be built in. In order to conceal the straps that have to be used to tie the wall plate down we are placing these on the cavity side as the block work is faced on the inside and will be painted. The external skin is left rough as it will be rendered. Next weekend further work will be completed in order to get a final measurement for the truss roof. We need to get the shell completed and water tight before the winter.
