Have a look at the last picture on this blog CTC. Not exactly the same but similar and might give you some ideas? I love how your ranch is looking, very beautiful.

thanks for the links etc of the stuff I need to use..


FAY... I feel the 'bit in the middle' where the fire goes, is missing, so I think I might need to put something here, plus I feel a cast plinth might me missing to run front to back on the opp side to the Oven..


As Hubby said we can allways put a dog basket in the middle for now, plus see if there is a way of putting the pot 'swing arm' in.


I think I got a broody quail lol...

FK I have been meaning to ask, how are the craft classes going??? been meaning to pop up, but stayed away because of our piggies being ill, and then its been a bit manic.. really do need to find the time for a catch up

CTC it will look lovely whatever you do with it. You could always have lots of pillar candles in the fire part to give an effect of fire, that looks lovely in an open fire. I did it in my last house in the bedroom as we didn't have the proper part for that either.

Oh dear, looking at that blog, I realise I'm a Philistine. :o

We're ripping out our Aga :eek::eek::eek:...

We're not replacing it with a range cooker of any description, just a hob and a couple of ovens.

thank you for thinking of us LIR, but I have one ready lol that we had or free..


Davesnave make sure you take it out properly and then plonk it on the bay... might be worth taking photos of it in situ.. so you can use those pics to advertise it..


fingers crossed we will have 3 fires...


the rayburn that hopefully will run the central heating, which will be in the kitchen/slob out room


The fireplace with the bread oven, which we will have as an open fire ( fingers crossed) in the front room, and then the lovely wood burner fire in the back room...

CTC - try a couple of big Ag shows, I am sure I saw someone doing "spares" for old ranges at one of them.

hi all...... ive had an interesting evening ! it is half light and im watching the deer from the bedroom window and saw this weird very bright light in the sky.. it was sort of zig zagging so i took a photo. the flash made the sky look lighter ? what is/was it ?

heres the deer i was watching just the other side of my fence... eating all the new shoots where the brambles were hacked down. also at a lake/pond in the forest i was at yesterday ,someone YEARS ago put in some koi fish and this is them now... they have survived dogs swimming, remote control boats, horses, cattle etc. this one is about 18"-24" long !! there is about a dozen big ones and hundreds of youngsters [4-6"]
