Ground level

End of a good week, the building has a complete slab (as posted before) and now the paths and steps around the house are becoming visible.  This is especially true at the front and the side.  The back garden, while not part of the contract with the builder, is being shaped a little and some of the soil being used to fill in at the front of the house.


This is what a manhole looks like when its being made.  This is in the back garden outside the master bedroom.  The bio digester is visible behind it.  This won't always be the case as soon it will be buried.


Second man hole, they will both flow down to the bio-digester.

You can also see its been a busy day for the labourer by the number of blocks that have been carried into position for the walls to be started on.


The supporting wall keeping the neighbouring fence and garden secure.  Further down you can see how this has evolved into a path with steps down to the back of the house.


One day the front retaining wall looks like this....see below for the day after


The front retaining wall today, the front door will sit on top of that wall.  The steps down the front of the house are starting to take shape.




The side wall and the steps starting to appear, this will form a path down the side of the house.



Stood on top of the front retaining wall where the front door should go looking down.
