Lean-To erected and electricity supply installed

We had good start to this week with some excellent sunny weather helping to dry up the quagmire of mud and clay, it is now very cold but at least it is not raining !


This is a view from the western end of the new building showing the partially erected lean-to element of the building. The white steel beams will be exposed inside the building.






Another view taken from the North eastern end of the building showing the lean-to, this end will be the entrance to the building.


This is one of the Western Power team,  finishing off the connection of the 3 phase electricity supply, rubber boots and very thick rubber gloves were used to make the connection !  






Another view, this time from the Eastern end  of the building showing the lean-to being erected.
