The Old Games Room

Demolishion of the Old Games Room & Marquee commenced on Friday 19th January 2007

We had a lot of very strong winds on Thursday 18th & at one point wondered if this work would commence on time, but the weather was kind to us & Friday saw a dry and bright morning.

. . .

. . . . .

and then the building has to come down !!!

. . . .

The demolition carried on throughout the week

. . . .

Before being a Games Room, we used this building as our Bar, however originally it was a Garage !

. . . .

. . . .

We had to tie rope on the end & tried & tried to pull the building down, Mind you we do want to keep the phone box !!

. .

. .

Whilst digging, a water pipe was once again found. No messing Ken got an axesaw - luckily enough it was not live! (this time)

. .

then the concrete arrived for the base.

Work recommenced on Monday 12th March 2007 & although there were a few hick ups, by 2.30 on Tuesday they were upto the start of the roof.

. .. .

Work during the week progressed quickly

. . . .

At this stage they were still working around the Phone Box, by the end of the week the shell is almost complete.

Although there is still another door to go in ! The outside area has also progressed well

. .

Theres a ramp at the front of the building, and another that will lead to the bar side door & the missing door !!!

The front of this area will be planted (eventually) (2008 now done)
