Ashgate Croft ILU continues on site, here's the progress at week 6:

Works so far include drainage and laying the slab. The timber frame that will form the structure of the building is currently being constructed on site.

As a nice end to this week, Andy and me are attending the official opening of the Renishaw Primary School Foundation Unit this afternoon - thanks to the school for the beautiful invites!
