Before we ventured into the land of trying out a vegan BBQ, we headed out to some of our local projects for a sightseeing tour. The three projects we planned to visit were indeed interesting.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

First up we went to Ferry Cottage, a Grade II listed building that is located within the North Hinksey Conservation Area. The building recently underwent alterations and renovations, with a carefully mastered demolition of the modern two-storey rear extension to reveal the north fa\u00e7ade of the original cottage. Walking down the road towards the cottage it looks just as quaint as the next one, but once you enter the stable doors and walk through the entrance you are greeted by a large open-plan kitchen. The kitchen has all-white quartz worktops and a large wooden table on the opposite side with a concrete floor giving the extension a very modern feel in contrast to the cottage you first enter. The property also has a reduced above-ground massing with additional basement accommodation as well as a new two-storey extension separated from the cottage by a glazed link. The property has a beautiful large garden lined with fruit trees leading down to the river.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
