Although you cannot see it there are actually 2 existing houses - one inside the other! In 1991 this shell was built around an earlier timber frame bungalow
Excavation revealed the interesting geology of this side of the Grasmere valley - lumps of lava (now cobbles) with a surrounding layer of soft ash - the cobbles were pinned back
Incredibly useful being able to take the entire building model to site while discussing details around the site office table and virtually walk round the building
The site office ran out of wall space to pin up drawings and so the ceiling was brought in to use - to good effect
