1. Progress with the house this week

   Posted on 12:00pm Friday 3rd Jul 2020

   This week has mainly been clearing out the  farm house. The house has been in the family since the early 1900's, bought by my great grandfather from his uncle in aroudn 1928. My granfather moved here when he was 1 and will be 93 this month- and still gonig strong!

   Powell family history post to come next week.

   Finds whilst clearing out include.. a hidden doorway, lots of lovely timber floors, tiled hearth to the only pre-1920's fireplace- hidden under carpet, and numerous diaries, and maps dating from 1928 onwards.

   Our first month at the house, and sadly it no longer looks like this. The scaffolding is going up slowly. However, we have started clearing the house which has meant some interesting finds, and some before and after pictures.. all to follow in the next week
