Build Day 1

Today was the day that we finally got started with the build.  

Kenny from Endrick Landscapes was first on site to build an access road for the construction traffic and supplies that will arrive over the next few months.

Kenny has already cleared the hedging on the road, formed the 'bellmouth' of the driveway and excavated the foundations for the new gateposts.

Calum arrives with his JCB

He was followed a short time later by Calum from the groundworks team.  Calum's guys will excavate & lay the foundations and install the drains and attenuation tank later this week.

A brace of diggers ready to get started!

I've also installed a 'time lapse' camera that should capture some footage of the foundations and build of the house.  I'm new to that technology but all being well I should be able to post some footage in a month or so.  Stay tuned!
