next up are the bedroom walls, a lot of time has been spent getting them back to a good starting point. loads of blown cob and earth plaster had to be removed, layers of plastic paint, random patches of concrete dug out - and now we can get into the reconstruction...
first off is to collect some fresh horse shit (complements of our four legged neighbours), add to this straw, water, course sand and some clay (locally sourced from St. Agnes). this creates a rather smelly, but strong and natural plaster that can be used to build up the walls as a base coat.
the result has been brilliant and really transformed the room.
