      Fits in very well!
      Never seen a double handle pot filler, with such an unusual but beautiful line management, over here.

          Bit of an afterthought.  Realized that stair rails would be a good idea.  Oak pigs ears…...

          Very nice indeed. Love a bit of oak. Be handy if you ever have drunken Norwegians visiting [emoji15]

                We have runners on the main stairs, the treads of which are knackered from 2 centuries of use and abuse, but this ancient pitch pine has so much character it would be a crime to hide it….

                  That arch though… damn Giles. You are one stylish mother jumper.
                  And those rails are very nice.

                  Maybe so. Maybe not

                    Took me and Les bloody ages to work out how to get it up there and make sure it stayed up.  It's fibrous plaster, so weighed a ton….

                        Copper guttering and downpipes for the BBQ area.  Now just need some serious evo, living in a salt-laden atmosphere will help with that…. 😉

                                This is how far we have got so far (I forgot to order a couple of joiny things because I am a rank amateur).  They will arrive tomorrow, hopefully with a shoe for the downpipe….

                                    I knew the copper would tarnish quickly in our environment.  But this is ridiculous - after just 2 days  😘 😘

                                            OH NO! I hope it wasn’t too deep of a cut G! The drains looks fantastic, however.
