The past few months have been incredibly busy at The Golden Lion, even throughout the festive season.
Our fantastic volunteers have been hard at work, using their impressive DIY skills to batten and insulate the external walls, construct internal walls, and tackle many other essential tasks. Their efforts have not only saved the project valuable time but also significantly reduced costs.
We are delighted to share that plaster-boarding and plastering are now nearing completion.
The progress is clear to see in the before-and-after photographs below – a testament to the dedication and hard work of everyone involved.
If you have DIY skills and would like to lend a hand with the renovation, we’d love to hear from you! Simply reply to this email, and we’ll get in touch with more details.
The following photographs showcase the meeting room area at the far end of the building. The ceilings in this space were raised to reveal the stunning timber beams, which have been sandblasted to highlight their character and charm. The stonework has also been carefully sandblasted and sealed, preserving its beautiful features for years to come.
Additionally, the small fireplace in this area has been swept and is now ready to be lit, adding warmth and ambience to this inviting space.
The following images feature the main fireplace, which has been expertly sandblasted and swept. You might notice that the opening has been restored to its original size and shape, giving it a more authentic look. We are excited to share that a log burner will be installed, making this space even more cosy and inviting.
You may recall some of these images showing the bar area after the ceilings were removed. As you can see in the latest photo, the ceilings and walls have now been plastered and are looking fantastic. We look forward to sharing more images of the bar once it is fully completed.
The following photos showcase the renovated ladies’ toilets, the “snug” area, the view looking down to the bar, and the side serving hatch. All these areas have been freshly plastered and are now ready for the next stage of the renovation.
We are thrilled with the progress so far, but there’s still work to be done. We’re in need of additional funds to fit out the kitchen, purchase initial stock, acquire kitchen and restaurant supplies, and landscape the car park.
Your support would mean the world to us – whether it’s by purchasing shares in this fantastic project or increasing your current investment. If you’ve already invested, thank you so much for your support!
