Home improvement - the kitchen - FINISHED!

At last, finished. A whole week without a kitchen is no fun. Everything is stored somewhere else, and the fridge is hardly accessible. It's a bit like camping, but not in a fun way. But, here we are, all done. The plaster is not all white, but is a light grey. Quite stylish, actually. We were told that this is an original colour finish in old houses.

For the first time in 200 years a decent tiled staircase. It used to be plastered with hollow rounded sides. We did leave the original wooden slats in place, of course.

Cellar entrance with (fake) antique tiles. And some junk still to clear away.

Our Kewlox cupboards were put outside. Unfortunately we have a lot of wind gusts here, and one toppled the big white Kewlox. As a domino it toppled the nice red one with the glass top. It no longer has a glass top, and 3 doors are now cracked.

Oh, and this door stopper is not a door stopper, but a wooden base for an ancient light switch. Which makes perfect sense, as on the first floor above there are antique electric insulators screwed to the beams of the roof.

A nice significance to these insulators is that this means the roof is at least made before the 1930's, as that is about the last date these were used.
