Mike, I strongly suggest that you use a Hazel Hurdle as a Waddle and Daub wall under the short roof side of the house It would be great as a base for the Daub Also, I would suggest you make the door on that side as well. even if you have to duck a bit to get inside. It is looking really good and I am eager to see the roof material going on. From the looks of it, I don't think the material around that site would make a decent roof material. and I am curious what you do select to make the roof out of. Would be great if you could roll up turf like professionals do so that you could place a roll on top and let it slide down the roof to cover it. Keep up the good work. and HI Graeme

Loving this series, pity there are no stones about your area you could build a black house like the ones built in the north of Scotland which were probably an off shoot of the houses built by the vikings, Iceland I believe has some of the most dramatic scenery is the northern hemisphere well worth a visit, the museum in Reykjavik has great exhibits of early settlers and there history is written down in their sagas will worth a read,

Ive been watching the TA family for a while now, and I have to say. I truly enjoy watching the interaction between you and your dad. I hope my son and I still have the same thing in 15 years, when he is your age. You've given us some great ideas for the outdoors Love the builds, all pine and cypress here. Cheers from Florida

As a Time Team veteran I've learned all ancient structures and some not so ancient had a circular drainage ditch surrounding the huts. It was the first thing they did, makes sense. And doesn't take long but really helps to keep water from pooling and getting inside.

Suburban sprawl has come to the village it seems. Need a privacy fence between the houses to keep the neighbors at bay. . Looking good, seriously good.
