Mass production creeps in. Interesting is the difference in the mortar, the kit on the right seems to be laser cut deeper and holds more of the wash applied. It may need some toning down or weathering. One pair for the side of the Red Lion and the other for down the terrace.

That one may need tempering down a bit. Nothing wrong with it but it may be a bit of a contrast with the others.
Curtains? Lights? Interiors?

Yes, all of that, just deciding which room to light and section off, didn’t want the whole house lit like Blackpool illuminations. Then the roof and gutters.

Surprising the difference the guttering has made. Rather large door steps to add. The left hand pair of the terrace were the first built and I forgot to add curtains, they’ll likely be put up for sale as vacant property :lol:

It seems like Saturday was Liberation Day; I spotted this locally, and at a bargain. It just had to come home.

Slow progress on Neptune Street, attention diverted to things like stay alive capacitors and real coal tender loads, but making a bit of progress on how the entrance to the shed is going to work out.

Need to make sure there’s enough room for the ‘old bill’ to pop in for a cuppa (although the van’s been in a time warp). Not sure who the dodgy geezer is?
