Plant Belles workshop build

Plant Belles HQ

Update: Christmas 2020 - This time last year we began building our shiny new workshop, to help increase our productivity (and comfort). One year on and we are putting the finishing touches to the front elevation (more pictures to come). Only now will we be watertight and draft free, promising a great start to 2021...

It had been high time, for a bigger 'fit for purpose' welding workshop at Plant Belle HQ. After more than 10 years of welding in an old concrete box of a garage, the time had come to upgrade.

So far, despite the horrendous weather challenges, we are still on schedule to carry Alex (Chief Welder) across the threshold mid April.
