I'm finally on to the last bay windows for this building. They have been really fiddly to make, but once done things will hopefully speed up. This end of the row is particularly attractive with its decorative woodwork forming porches between the bays. Thoughts are now turning to how to create a slate roofing master sheet which can be copied on to art paper.
This cottage has no visible cellar at the front, unlike the one on the left. I wasn't sure if it originally had one and it had been covered over at a later date. The Francis Frith photo from the 1930s shows a lilac bush growing in front of the cottage so it seems to confirm that the it has always been different. I need to start to resolve these levels in relation to the baseboard before much longer. Because I have condensed the overall plan of the village the road level is slightly different to the prototype, but hopefully it won't detract from the overall view.
