A Perfect Find
While exploring the Secondhand Warehouse, Leominster (20 mins by car or train from Victory Cottage) sat on a table waiting to be found a small piece of stain glass just the right size to fit our hole on the stairs.
Now in position with the light shining through looks beautiful.

The stairway. This house has shown us a few secrets. Our next surprise was the evidence of a window hidden behind plaster board. We presume it was to add natural light to the stairway before this house had electricity. But what do we do with it.

We found a victorian Coleman Starch box set into the wall amongst the much older oak beams.
We have photographed it, covered to protect it and left it in situ. Waiting for someone else to found in years to come.

While installing new electrics, we caught a glimpse of an ancient oak roof beam. We decided to see how far it went and could it be exposed. Then we got carried away. Several hours later all of the plaster came off and exposed many beams. It seemed a shame to cover them back up. See tomorrow what else we found.

Changing the seals on the conservatory door. Stop the draughts and save on heating costs.
This conservatory will be more than a large entrance porch. It will be an extra, comfortable warm room. Somewhere to breakfast or read a book.
