Busy at my workspace in Swinton. I'm making a bird hide for Herringthorpe Junior school in Rotherham. Y3/4 children helped design a hide for their wildlife garden. It will have a wild flower meadow on the roof, with a periscope to see the flowers and plants above your head! As you can see I'm making the windows at the moment. They're made from recycled plastic lumber- brilliant stuff- rot proof and really strong. Jim and I made the pond dipping platform from the same stuff last year.
If it looks a little draughty that's because its not finished! It will all be clad in cedar shingles- wooden tiles. They will be nailed on to the horizontal timbers you can see. Ill do that when I take it all to the school next week. At the moment its all slotted together so I can dismantle it.
