It’s not a pigeonnier it’s Simon’s office?
The little building on the left-hand side of the house has become a useful storage room while we wait for our barn roof to get fixed. There is a ground floor and a first floor. The ground floor is compressed dirt on granite rocks. This needs leveling and a new concrete base putting in. The first floor had some nesting materials in there to be cleared and a bit of wood or so we thought!!!
Pictures and video below. To recreate this scene you will need:
4 people who don’t mind getting their hands dirty
4 protective hazmat Suits
