I went round the site today and took some videos of a few of the projects we would like to undertake, not necessarily straight away, but to consider and schedule when the time is right.
1. Resurfacing the drive:
It is very undulating, has many cracks and the exterior of the house needs some extensive drainage works and remodelling, so this could all be looked at simultaneously
2. re-pointing of decorative wall in front of house:
We did also have a discussion with one of the builders we had round who suggested that rather than re-pointing the wall we could take it out all together - this might also be an option... There is value in the bricks and we could always use them for some other projects that may pop up (in the garden perhaps?)
3. Establish a wildlife pond in the shallow part of the lake
4. Convert the old Chicken Shed into a studio:
5. Establish an orchard in front of the chicken shed, to help zone the larger field:
6. Make a clearing in the woodland to establish some bluebells and create a space to retreat to:
7. Thin out the conifers to create space for a woodland sauna:
8. Tidy up the walled/kitchen garden and landscape the rest:
There are lots of other little projects too and the wonderful thing about the whole site is that it feels like a lifetime project. Such an inspiring place, that in time will become truly amazing. I can't wait until we are living here every single day.
