As winter approached, the Viking trading ship, ‘The Walrus‘, was looking quite dried out after a long summer. A touch of linseed oil worked wonders. Elsewhere the top floor coat in the longhall contined to grow, this time with some wood ash in the mixture for a bit of variety, and outside was a scene of massed carving.

Looking forward to being able to see round. I turned up the other day, hoping to do so – didn’t realise that it was not yet open to he general public!
The buildings are still being finished off. There is usually a volunteer group working there on a Wednesday (unless we are out coppicing in December) so we can let you have a look around then
Thanks.
