Steady progress in being made at Aldington Manor. The stone and block work, for the extension has reached chest height in only two days, due to the fantastic job by Stanleys Quarry (www.cotswoldstone.com), of cutting the stone to perfect accuracy.
Some of the blocks were up to 800mm long and have been laid on lime putty. The joints were face pointed in lime putty mortar, made of a mix of lime putty and stone dust, to keep with the age of the existing house.
