    Get the bbq and the pizza oven done then invite TLB for some heavy lifting. Get the roof on in a weekend.

    Oh yeah and 500m2 of polytarp to keep the rain off us...

  5. I've just googled Bastle houses - quite an interesting read. Are you intending to keep your animals on the ground floor and live on the floor above like the old days! :eek:

    Try to get under the radar with it, hope they dont put an emergency one on it if you go for planning, I suppose its not a big problem but may slow you up.
     
  10. Great find,:hattip:
    Are you gonna live on site and do it ,
    my brother did similar ,
    took him a year

    Much the same, just a wall and some rubble,
    Had to underpin the one wall eventually..:eek:
    it was old stables,
    got a shock when he found it became grade 2 listed...

    You need Harry and Megan to do the budget, at least 2.5 Million to get it to a basic level of comfort, not much trouble with planning ether. I can understand why we have to pay for the Palace and stuff like that but private houses, for one of the richest families in the world, I just dont get why we are daft enough to do it!!

  14. Well its official i own it after 5 months of being messed about. Im the owner of a 18th century house.

    So next thing is to get the planning sorted out:thinking: This is going to be another six months or longer.

    Ive got a video and will try and upload it at some point.

  15. To say i'm a bit concerned of it killing me is a bit of a understatement the wall's are 3ft thick looking at the timber lintels three of them with
    massive stone boulders above i'm not sure acro and strong boy will take it.


    The nearest A&E is three hours away! please advise:eek:
