I don't want to be negative. But you should look at IH Designs website. Never mind not being a conservation architect, they're not even architects........I mean if you want drawings for a dormer fair enough, but is this not a different kettle of fish?

Do you think a certain ex pupil might have a say. Not normally shy and retiring when espousing the Big Chantelle line.
