I like the building!

And the museum sounds like a great place to visit. Perhaps if I get to England some day.

You are creating some marvellous work there, Pauls Bods, all of which is very interesting and timely for me. I hope you continue to post. Thanks.

Time to show us the whole village!

Any thoughts on a church yet? Or the way it's growing you might need a cathedral!

Nice model! For interest, Southampton has several medieval buildings preserved, including a merchant's house. Have a look online (or maybe on Google Streetview too actually). They are in the "French Quarter" of Southampton!

Thanks :-D
@ Michael. The village is nearly complete, 10 buildings planned, 3 finished and 3 nearing completion.
@ Micjk. Iīve made a church, a wooden framed one

but I donīt like the look of it anymore…and a larger one is planned..and if I can work out how..a cathedral.
@ Malc. Iīve got a couple of pics of a house from Southhampton on file… the one in St. Michael's Square, Bugle Street the one called "King John's Palace" which Iīve also found as being called "Henry VIII`s Palace" ?

Odd Thing with it though…in some pics the corner gable End has a Roof..in others not??

Paul, I think that's an optical illusion.

On the last small picture You've got 4 white spaces before hitting the front wall. The first 3 quarter side picture shows 3 white spaces before the roof edge butts into it. Tracing up the roof lines, remembering it's got two planes, they appear to converge nicely.

It's a beautiful building though.

Your right Dave..Thanks. I really Need my eyes testing. Iīve finally done what Malc has suggested..put it into street view and itīs clear the Roof doesnīt extend over the bay.
I had it in mind for a building for adding to a street Corner..now my confusion with the Roof is cleared up I can have a go at it.
Thanks again
