Niches


I built three niches yesterday in the chamber. They sort of designed themselves according to the available stones I could find.  They give a pleasing contrast to the more primitive chunkiness of the rest of the structure so far.  The niches will be places to put candles or maybe to hold glasses and bottles of wine. For now I store my chisel and hammer there when I'm not using them.

Dan asked about tea and coffee breaks. Yes we take lots. Here is the view we have when we take our breaks. It is a fantastic view of hills, trees, walls and sheep in every direction. I like walling in Lancashire.  I think I've found my niche.


That's the gypsy caravan we sit in on our rainy breaks. Yesterday was sunny.
