OTHER BACKGROUND TO THE RENOVATION: Miner s Cttage II is a cttage fr a mdern day miner with an industrial inspired extensin which features cal black kitchen units and blackened larch cladding. Reclaimed bricks frm the Victrian lean-t extensin that 'belnged' with the cttage and were reused in the new kitchen/diner. The flr is plished cncrete which cnnects it visually the riginal flagstnes in the ld cttage and the silvered Larch n the deck. The drs were salvaged frm the riginal huse and had been wallpapered and cvered ver with hardbard in the 60s. The under stairs cupbard was discvered under years f wallpaper and its riginal elm dr was eerily barded up. The later circa. 20th additins, such as the vestibule, cupbards either side f the fireplace and Bakelite dr handles were all retained as they evked the different eras and wnership f the cttage. The flagstnes were discvered almst cmpletely intact under a later cncrete tpping and are a rare survival f an 18th Century riginal flr. There used t be 7 drs frm the frnt dr t the back garden and ne small windw. The drs and walls were remved in the centre f the cttage in rder t imprve the flw, allw light t fld in frm the suth facing garden and als take advantage f the view ver the viaduct.
