At the Pastor Latham Almshouses in nearby Barnwell, Northamptonshire. We are raising money to build a washroom extension to the 17th century chapel at the top end of the gardens that you see here in the videos -

Parts 1 & 2.
In order to comply with the Grade 1 listed historic buildings laws, the new extension has to be built in exactly the same fashion, down to the mortar and exact same stone from the original quarry. Needless to say, all this costs a fortune - at least ten times more than building it out of modern materials and structures. So any way we can raise money is good.
Me and Broos set up around 9:30 and ran until almost 1pm - by which time we were all answering questions out. Met lots of old friends, including Derek, who had seen, as a young boy, the crash that killed the four Canadian airmen whose graves I care for here, among others. That, however, is another story.
Best to all
