we found the inglenook fireplace behind the wall on the left, the sliding doors we removed to open the room up

this view shows the sliding doors and part wall removed, and the back of the old flue, to the centre left is the opened up window

this picture shows the closed in window on the left, and the fireplace wall

this is the new window in the living room, here is where I sit at my computer

this is Dean excavating the old fireplace

this is the inglenook fireplace we unearthed, note the granite which we uncovered, re-pointed, and painted white inside, but left the outer walls bare, also the cast iron stove we had installed, and the quarry tiled hearth

this is what will be the dining room, avoid the odd assortment of furniture, note the walls which are now repointed granite, which has been painted white, and the new door, which lets in so much more light than before

this is the new door, see the damaged rendering on the side walls

from this photo you can see the new windows and door, see the granite blocks beneath the old rendering, hopefully this will all be exposed eventually.

this shows the old dining room window, which has now been replaced by a door. You can see the bare granite bock walls, after we had removed the chipboard covering it. On the very left, is the start of the angled wall, which when the boarding was removed, revealed the back of an old flue.

this is the new door from inside, showing the back of the old flue

this obviously is the staircase wall in the dining room, this time covered with laminated hardboard. This wall is opposite the new front door, to the left is the door to the kitchen, to the right is the doorway to the living room.

this is the bedroom wall, showing the damage to the lath and plaster

here you can see the chipboard covering the bedroom walls, and the old window

this is the end of the kitchen opposite the door

this is the galley kitchen, such as it is

this is the original front door in the kitchen, note how small the kitchen is. In the picture below you can see how it has been replaced by a window.

this is the new window, in the place of the old door, this wall had been built up, and has at least been rendered, ready for plastering. You may just be able to see that we have no ceiling in here yet

this is the kitchen as we have to use it at present, the majority of items are currently in the dining room and are used there for now

this is the old doorway which we had blocked off with a window, you can just see the new door to the right

the old living room window from the outside

this is one of the old rotting lintels

the wall above the kitchen extension, which had blown rendering on, has now had the render removed, and the mortar replaced and sealed
