Another new site, this time for a firm of brickworkers and scaffolders based in Rushden.
Of particular interest to me (I watch a lot of C4 Timeteam on the TV) was the fact that as well as providing scaffolding in the East Midlands, and brickwork they have worked on refurbishing 17th and 18th century brickwork at Merton Hall, St Johns College in Cambridge. Old building facsinate me and I would love to be talented enough to be able to basically rebuild a 17th / 18th century building - mind you I was reading in my local paper the other day about a stone mason that has worked on Peterborough Cathedral for about 30 years ! Now to be able to work on something like that and know that you great grandchildren will be able to look at the work and know that you did it, that must realy be something special.
