Lambley House

View from the South, back garden
The sloping conservatory members have been replaced
1 Oct 2011: On the hottest October day in weather history! We had the Melton Rd Shoppers market in the morning, and DNC did his stint for Rushcliffe Solar on the WB Transition stand.
    Later Dnc went to the Lambley house, designed in 1981-2, for a visit to the owners Mike and Myrtle Felstead. They've spend quite a lot rebuilding the conservatory, and had borrowed the original drawings for reference. There was an element of thermal storage in the building, and it has whole house MVHR since 1981, which must be one of the first ever fitted! How I wish that I had stayed with that energy efficient design idea after that, it seems like 30 years gone round, and here I am back doing thermal storage and heat reclaim.

a later addition
