Yurt Latest News.

Hi,
We went today to see how 20ft Yurt is coming along, the frame is now up and almost complete. As soon as it is then it will be measured for its outer covering. Below are some pictures of how it is now looking, the craftsmanship is very impressive. Chris and Carleen from the Yurt Shop near Battle obviously take a great deal of pride in the making of their Yurts.
You can see in the pictures that there is a 10ft Yurt that is up inside the larger one which along with Sara standing inside will give you some idea of the size of the larger Yurt.

The last of the roof struts on a former after being steamed.

Hi,
Just to bring you all up to date with how far along we are, we have now cleared out all the Hopper huts. Some of these have been closed up since we finished hop picking 8 years ago and a couple longer than that!
You can see some pictures below.
