I know Pete your right, I think the Pool Inn was the last to come down after a suspicious fire Luckily the person purchasing the Birds House is an experienced Architect. who will give the building the respect it deserves the sale is hopefully due to complete Feb.

Yes, it's all taking much longer than expected to-ing and fro-ing between solicitors. Reckon it will probably be the end of March now before completion, so hopefully a big flurry of activity before Easter. Friends of Birds House sounds like a great idea!

I remember being at St. Lukes Church with the Boys Brigade & the Life Boys in the mid 60's. The church caretaker & bell ringer at the time was a small man with a stooped walk called Billy Woosnam. He lived in The Old House.

My Uncle was a member of the BB for years, I think that they used to go camping over to Ireland. I remember being at St. Lukes Church with the Boys Brigade & the Life Boys in the mid 60's.

Thanks for letting me know - just hope there's no damage behind the boarding. Latest is that we complete the purchase on the 15th April, so I will be there on the day to get the boarding removed, emergency plumbing & electrical work etc done.If anyone's around then, or the following morning, I'll be in the house and glad to show the state it's in before we start work.

Always willing to lend a hand, had the packs through myself from S&S at the time. Fair bit of work doing and will echo what has been said above, willing to lend a hand.
