It was a wonderful experience to reveal the beauty hidden for centuries in these dilapidated and near abandoned structures.

And it is a practical beauty as the barns take on an entirely new life, and are lived in in a way that could not have been envisaged when they were first built, probably over four centuries ago.

Making this transformation was a true labour of love for owners and Michael alike as it evolved into a remarkable home not just for now but the centuries to come.
