Just a reminder that there is still the opportunity to attend a site visit to Highthwaite in Greystoke near Penrith this Wednesday, 12th October from 2pm - 4pm.

 

This event offers an opportunity to see elements of the build in progress. Integrating new build into a village setting and adjacent listed buildings, Highthwaite is being constructed by Matthew Nielsen of The Green Building Site. As his family's future home, it demonstrates an extensive range of energy efficiency measures and renewable energy technologies, whilst reflecting local building styles.
