Since Christmas work's included fitting the new windows, restoring the sandstone floor and adding the new toilet extension. We're awaiting the roof timbers for the new build and starting to think about fitting the building out.
This is where you might be able to help. We were really lucky to find a local source for sandstone slabs to complete the floor in the old building. This has started us thinking about fixtures and fittings for the original building. We plan to explain its history over at least 100 years - as a laundry, a bakehouse, a storeroom for the funeral director and a building used for social events. We're keeping as many original features as we can but would love to find an old fashioned fireguard, a Belfast sink and an old wooden chest which we could adapt to house the sink. We want something which is in keeping with the age of the building - we don't want it shiny and new, in fact old and battered is preferred. Have you got something tucked away in an outhouse or barn? If so please let us know.
