Timber frame

I might have mentioned this before, but underneath all the plasterboard and whatnots is a timberframe house (Fachwerk). Every now and again bits of it peek through when we knock off plaster.

Werner went to the town archives this week to look at papers which date the house as much older than originally thought.

Although it's still not 100% sure it is now thought that the house was built in 1896!!

More on this later.....
