Another big step in the restoration project and we are almost complete on the entrance to the coach house. The Burton and South Derbyshire College students have installed a new door frame – made by the Bench Level 2 students at the college, assembled on site and fitted last week.
The original outer doors had previously been removed and replaced with two new braced doors. All hooks and bands have been individually restored.
Inside, it’s full steam ahead with the interior now plaster boarded.
Next steps – the students are in the process of creating the inner door and the entrance will be complete.
Special thanks to the students, Harrison and Freddie, Harlow Timber Group and Joe Muggleton!
