Monday 20th OctoberGus & Jonathan make up and erect the roof trusses and the back of No.5. | Tuesday 21st OctoberMore progress on the roof trusses at No. 5. However the weather beats us before we can finish lifting all the trusses into their hangers. We will hope for better weather tomorrow. |

Wednesday 22nd OctoberA fine day and by lunchtime the trusses on No 5 are finished, including the tricky hip beams which stabilise the whole roof system. | Wednesday 22nd OctoberAt the end of the day the 11 trusses at the back of No. 6 are standing. Tomorrow we should make a hole in the remaining 16 trusses (weather permitting). |
|
Thursday 23rd OctoberDespite a very windy day we make great progress again - this is the view from the road as all the roof trusses are in place (apart from the two that sit on the hip beams). | Friday 24th OctoberEighteen NorDan windows and four Swedoor doors are delivered to site and stored in the lounge of No.5. |

Friday 24th OctoberDespite very heavy rain throughout the day we put the finishing touches to the roof trusses (hip beams, truss clips, hold down brackets, window openings, etc.). | |
