Stone Wall and Aluminium Cladding

A quite ornate stone wall had to be partly demolished to make way for digger access in the staircase area.  That was a shame but we kept the stone carefully and they have been most excellently rebuilt into the wall:

You can barely see the join.

Neighbours have politely enquired how the external cladding is coming along as for now the walls are covered in black Tyvek which does look untidy, if effective at keeping the weather out.

In fact the walls have been the subject of a good deal of planning:

Forgive the orientation of the drawing but the panels on all of the five outside walls  have been carefully worked out.  The grey panels on the drawings are existing panels recovered from the earlier extension which will be re-used.  The red panels will be made anew.
