I've not been 'going on' about the progress at Well House Manor, as the building projects of others can bore the living daylights out of me if mentioned frequently, and I'm sure that applies to you too. However, I will stick my neck above the parapit on the subject today and tell you it's going well, on schedule. A few surprises, but then I would be surprised if there had been nor surprises if you get me!
Talking about "above the parapit", we've got scaffolding up to one of the chimneys at the moment an that affordered a rare opportunity so see out side of Melksham from a high vantage point. Very impressive, but hard to capture in a picture. But here are some 'close' views looking at our new car prking area and drive out past 'the Cottage'. Can any of you delegates who stayed at "The Old Manor" recognise this, or have we transformed it beyond recognition?
