Hello muckers,
As promised here are the pics of the roof going on.
Thanks for all your concerns about the foundations but there have been 3 different people who have signed this off as being OK, the builder, the architect, and the NHBC guy who checked the land before the concrete was poured and after it had set. As mentioned before too the land is very hard, once you get to a certain depth there is near impenetrable red clay... I don’t think the house is going anywhere, not that I'm an expert... but the experts I've spoke to say I shouldn’t have any problems.
There is also a fair amount of muck to be spread back around the house, most of what you see at the base will be covered.. at least those first two courses of bricks maybe a little more. I've attached a front elevation below too so you can see.

Next steps are to get proper scaffolding around the entire house and start permanently bracing it better and building in the Velux windows. After that we will be sheeting the roof, felting it, put on battens and adding tiles.
Cheers for all the interest I didn’t really think the thread would take off.
