Im on a Mission @ the Mo Gathering Conponents to build an Arbour

Iv got most of the bricks A Beautifull Corbull I Got off Ziggy and the Fire Place

Iv Also got this invistion to build a stone entrance around the front of the Arbour

like a Door way with a Grand look to it

looking on web sites and in reclomation yards the smallest of door ways am anything from £500 + some Iv Looked @ am £5000

NO WAY TO EITHER

Iv used My Imagination and am going to Make my own

i know it wont be as nice or as elabrate as wot Iv saw but this is a learning prosses for me & No Dout i will make Mistakes when i build it as i did with the folly and like every 1 have to econamize

looking around i found a place with 6 old terrcotta window Cills Quite big and bulky i thought boy they would look nice if i re/worked them and made a door frame out of them

They Origanlly come from the Stourbridge School of Art built in 1899 on my door step built for the famous Glass works here in Stourbridge since being demolished the pices am now 30 odd miles away in Stafford Shire still Quite Local ile travel 1 end of the country to the other if its something i like or want with out batting an eye lid OH Thinks Im Nuts but have allways been this way furthest so far 500 mile round trip for a Dog

same again for my VDub well 480 that was

I Abslutley Love it and Enjoy it
