Now And Then

Way back in 1989, that's what I have written on base with initials I made this building. The base and walls are plywood coated in Polyfilla, no MDF those days, I am not even sure if it was a thing?
The garden wall I am not sure about, Gallia perhaps? The roof is off a farm building in the children's farm set, it was broken anyway, honest. The window and door frame is made with match sticks, the chimney pots and guttering are from Wills railway accessories. The gate is from a Tamiya scenery kit and the tree a good old K & M one.
It is rarely used these days, in light of my latest fluttering Dave suggested it could be used again, in a case of great minds..... Or? I had already got it out the loft with a view to sprucing it up.
Voila! 
It has turned out well I thought.
Until next time ........................KBO

  1. It is a gem. Perhaps English Heritage might get it Listed for preservation?
