So, I have been in Chesterfield this afternoon, so thought I would drop in on Old Bolsover Yard (OBY) on the way home to see what progress had been made since I was last there.
Imagine my surprise when I went into the Yard, and it was completely silent - a bit like a scene in a Western film when they are waiting for the bandits to come riding in!!
No scaffolding, no materials, all the roofs re-tiled, all the pointing done and everywhere sealed up waiting for Phase 2.
I expect that I shall be hearing from Steve in the next day or two to 'sign-off' on the work and then part with some money!
See the photo gallery below of pictures I took earlier this evening.
Another phase of the 're-generation' is happening on Friday, when we are having a skip delivered and the 'working-party' are going to set about clearing out all the units, tidying the courtyard area, and anything else that qualifies for 'going into the skip'.
Then I hope we will hear about the doors & windows very soon, and get those installed, and we will then be 'watertight & secure' - Phase 1 DONE!!
Things certainly seem to have 'taken off' in the last couple of weeks, and so the excitement level is rising every day.
Keep watching for the next installment of the story.
