Tanfield and the Tunnel Again

A rainy day at Tanfield, but dry work can continue inside because all of the lower roof sheeting is in place.

Austin making window surrounds

John splicing offshoot joists

Nigel nailing up ceiling rafters

Ian adding door frames

Rob insulating walls

Nigel still hammering at the end of the day
