Not a hobbit’s house but it is in Northampton-Shire. I designed and built this pool house from scratch for a client: inside is the swimming pool electrics and equipment.

Summer is here: patio time
The garden was originally a flat rough lawn. Three weeks later there is a patio facing the sun and newly sown lawn edged with herbaceous cottage garden plants.
Concrete breaking
This is the start of a project to break up rough concrete and improve drainage in a narrow space between the house, garage and boundary fence. Watch this space as the work progresses.
Re-use and Recycle
This was a small job to repair a rotten fence brought down by a smothering of ivy. The client removed the ivy himself and wanted to re-use the existing gate. We’re always pleased to recycle and reuse.
Barn raising in Bucks
We’ve been travelling around a lot recently. The last job was making a palace for guinea pigs in Kent. This one is a slate-roofed barn in a garden in Buckinghamshire. Designed in consultation with the client and built from scratch. As usual assisted by Milo. Wood was sourced from our experts at http://www.linnellbros.co.uk in Silverstone.
Play area
We don’t believe in endless blogging so we’ve been quiet for a while. This week Mervyn has been landscape part of a school playground in anticipation of new reception children playing in the area. Day 1 was hot and humid. Day 2 it poured with rain. But Mervyn never gives in. Here are some pics of the work and the finished scene. Machinery hired from http://www.wtphire.com/
