Floral Cottage - Getting a New Coat - end August 2012

This is what the Floral Cottage looked like up to 23 August.




But Mitch, Steve and Shaun have been working on the Floral Cottage and already, things are looking a lot better. They are finding some broken boards left over from January 2011 when we insulated and some rotting wood, but what would your expect from an 150 year old house? I have a whole cup of square nails already.  I find it interesting to imagine the people who nailed those nails into place and who built the house 150 years ago.  Who were they, what were their lives like?
