A storage facility in the farmyard

At the end of January, work began on a second barn for storage purposes. The construction was similar to the one built two years ago, but it was to have the floor made from pallet wood.

By February, it was left incomplete but usable by virtue of a tarp covering the roof to keep out most of the water. The only photos are incidental – ones taken of the whole plat from a drone.

Work recommenced in August, and the priority was to get the roof felted. A deluge of rain had been forecast following months of drought. So once the tarp was off, there was an urgency about the task.

The rains came, and satisfyingly, when every container was overflowing, the water ran off the roof to perfection.

It was time to tidy up the roof, pay a little attention to details and get the straw bale walls sorted.
