Welcome to the Distillery Build Blog
This month we have seen wall rise above our heads and the roof timbers start to be positioned in place.
The events barn has now been cleared out before the new roof structure goes on.
In the centre of the building the still room roof is going on which will be the first area to be finished.
The South Barn blockwork begins
The south barn will house our storage, staff facility and office. With it being a new structure, it will be rising up far quicker than the old barns
Roof out the bottling barn
The roof has now been removed from the middle barn which will house the bottling area and shop. It's suddenly feeling like a much bigger space for us!
Events barn
This barn opens out onto the abbey grounds and our tasting bar. The roof has been removed and internal walls taken down.
The room will host private events, tastings and provide some of the best views of the Abbey.
Still Room Roof
The timbers are being fitted to the still room. These glulam beams against the old stone walls will create the perfect setting for our still.
View from the walkway
The scale of the site is feeling much bigger now on the approach from the walkway
