Currie Visit
Currie Visit
With the lockdown restrictions easing a little, we have arranged for some friends to come up and spend some time with us at the Temperance Hall.
Avid followers of the blog will have read about the Curries already so it’s nice when we can, to repay their hospitality. I think given the amount of times we’ve spoken about progress (..or lack of it) at the hall over the years, I would forgive anyone for glazing over as I talk through the minutiae of restoring a property but once they get a good look at the place, they can start to understand the scale of the job we took on, all those years ago.
It’s lovely to finally be able to give them the tour of the building, point out some of the more unique points which make it up, including the beam markings, lintels which seem to have been installed almost at random and help them make sense of them.
Their garden at home is lovely so Rachel is already quizzing Natalie on her recommendations for sensitive planting at the front of the hall, so hopefully over the next few months, we’ll have some local plant varieties to soften the front and help it blend in with it’s surroundings even more.
