Extension No.1

As promised.  For this first extension I have selected this 60s/70s garage-lounge combination, with sunken garage.  There is something 60s about the flat roof and below-street-level garage, aswell as the faux-rustic stonework, while it is culturally redolent of the 70s suburb, when these type of extensions had bedded in to their laburnum soaked pavements, with a faint musk of Invisible Man-era USA.  Or what we imagined the USA to be like.  In the background of these, though, would be a view of a distant stone farm house, huddled in a circle of beech trees and crows.

Added either side of the garage door have been pre-cast chess knights - maybe reflecting a hobby of the builder/commissioner.
There is something Elizabethan about the commissioning of this detail, even if it is bought out of the builders yard, to reflect a life: and live on it does: verily the Folk Suburb indeed.

Also, in this view, is the germ of a future series in the 'doorside lamp', and the scaly aiming-at-a-Spanish-feel renderwork round the door is a remembrance of holidays in Franco's blasted fishing villages (see also the more Godzilla-like application of this style in a previously covered extension).
