The first step in restoring the brick kitchen is removing the heavily damaged late nineteenth century brick floor.  We are investigating what lies beneath before rebuilding the flooring.

Pickaxes and sledge hammers.

Much work to be done.

Not yet ready…for prime time or for laundry!

Lightweight building materials…note the chisel marks on the bottom of the stone sink.

It’s very cold!  And the work must go on…
