Well, repair work has now well and truely started. Whilst we have full planning permission and building regs approval, we can't start until the planting scheme has been approved. This has been with the council since June and no comments have been made apart from confiming that they have it. We are, therefore, carrying out repairs, rather than actual building work. Having said that, the pointing just goes on and on. It appears that the walls were just a neatly stacked pile of bricks with little or no mortar in them so there is plenty to do!
