A good old fashioned barn

After a busy spring and summer building green oak timber framed extensions of different shapes and sizes around Cornwall, its quite nice to get back to making a good old fashioned barn/workshop. We started this is in the workshop last weekend, and although its largely built in local Douglas Fir, its nice to be working on a free standing frame that will be raised about 100 yards from the workshop. My back is certainly enjoying the change from hefting green oak beams around the yard!
