addition

looks like an addition is being constructed on this home.  The work seems to be stalled at this time, no workers or evidence of tenants.



obviously a new gate will be needed


and a pile of turf to be used

    Hi Bill.

    Too bad it stands still.
    It seems a nice place to live.

    Greetings from Patricia.

    Sad to see so much coming to a halt. Here in our grocery store I was surprised baskets were allowed again. And people kept the distance at the cash out anyways - sadly only there...
    Warm and sunny here - hope in your place, too, have a great day, Bill :-)

    Interesting enlargement of a house, that turf is used for heating?

    Much still to be done. Maybe they ran out of money. It boggles the mind that peat is still being burned.

    Let's hope it gets finished after the virus goes, well hopefully.
    Looks a promising house.

    Judging from the second photo, I think the workers are tired.

    God bless.

    Someone ran out of money :-(
    I was very surprised at the interesting heating options in Ireland. But I think it takes a lot of work ...
    Greetings and good Easter for you.

    Did Covid stop construction? Everything is halted here.

    Happens like that here, people build an extension. I did many years ago

    Great photos Bill. The addition matches the original architecture, and looks good. Housing construction is still allowed here in Connecticut US, despite our Lock Down, because it is considered an essential service.

    Misschien hadden ze geen geld meer or maybe because of the coronavirus may no longer work there …
    Have a nice afternoon Bill!

    Lots of promise for that house. We still have construction crews at work in NC. I worry about them as a friend is concerned.

    I like how they continued the style of the old building.

    It looks like they are doing a good job of matching up the new to the old.

    Looks like the place has been around for a long time.It's been fairly well kept up.

    Someone's plans have gone out the window! Hopefully the delay won't be too long.

    Oh I wish they can go back to finishing it soon. But I have to say I love how the structure looks identical to the original portion, if it's finished I think it will look like it has been built the same time :)

    All construction halted courtesy of the nasty virus. I wonder how we are all going to get back to normal, it's such a strange life right now. Happy Easter anyway.... stay safe, stay well, stay away from other people.

    The symmetry is wonderful. It will be a lovely home. I wish we had peat here. I have such great memories of the scent.

    It may have been stalled for a while? It looks like there's some dampness seeping up into the new brickwork.

    Looks like it will match whenever they finish it.
