The Folly has had a Make-over

It seems ages ago that we sold our lovely old home, the North range of Settle's Grade 1 Listed Folly to the owners of the south range.   This meant that this magnificent old building was one again. 

We were reasonably confident that the new owners, the North Craven Heritage Trust (I hope I have that right) would work hard to preserve it - and my word they have!

It has been shrouded in scaffolding and building-wrap for many months whilst repairs took place, including repointing and a re-roofing.  This week the shrouds came down and wow -


























Things have been done inside too including the north end top floor and what was our garage.  Can't wait to see that.

Meanwhile, at our new home, the cladding at the south end is nearly done but I would hate to eclipse The Folly with a picture of it.

 Just yet.
