This is the first selection of photos showing progress - the building which houses young stock and dry cows is currently being finished off. Here you can see it before work started and then part way through. It has already been roofed and they are finishing off the fittings at the moment. A few shots around the farm showing our state of the art milking parlour which was opened in October - it's a 20 x 2 so they milk 40 cows at at time. A shot of the stockage tank for that stuff cows produce a lot of as well as milk! Also a photo of the space age milk tank featuring my husband and the farm owner! Final shot shows evening light through the old chapel arch in the original farm buildings which date back to the late 1700's and have been largely restored by the current owners.

Number 3 is really interesting in its patterns of light and shade.
The last shot of the chapel arch is a stunner!
