Brown waste generally has its own little shed at the back of the house (outside toilet). This is the story of making an internal bathroom which incorporates the grey waste from the Kitchen and the utility room.

In some areas of the cottage mud was used as a base for the floors. Mud floors are all well and good for insulation but after over 50 years of neglect they had become a nesting ground for ants, woodworm , mice and rats. In the main house a combination of wood & mud was used. The wood was left untreated and led to an unprecedented amount of woodworm. The floors throughout the house were in very poor shape and were dangerous to walk upon. Mud floors are dug out reinforced with steel and poured concrete. Mud & wood floors are replaced with wooden structures that are treated, levelled and topped with laminate or real hardwood floors.
