Floor removal
The demolition of the floor started a pace this morning.
As a nice suprise for the digger man, we seem to have two concrete floors in the barn. It looks like it was previously a cow shed with a flat floor and troughs (mangers?) round the edge for feeding. There are series of rings set into the wall to which the cows must have been tethered. At some time a new floor was laid on top with two gulleys running down the middle of the floor. We suspect it was for veal production, because the newer addition of the 'lean-to' had a hot water cylinder and some sort of drainage to possibly prepare the warm milk feed for the veal.
He's shifted about 5 lorry loads of rubble and there is a fair bit still to do.
