Bricks

As the build goes on I thought I'd take the time to show you some of the materials and products that we're using.

To start with I thought that I'd show you which bricks we're going to use. They're called Bradgate Multi Cream from Ibstock.



Apologies for the picture of the developer tower block but its the only thing I can find online that has been built using these bricks. They look good in the flesh, though - don't worry!

As a part of our planning permission all external materials must be agreed by the council in advance so the choice of bricks is very important to ensure what we build fits in with its surroundings.

We think these should do the trick and, luckily for us, the council agrees!
