Cragend SIlo 2011

Minecraft Virtual Tour

In 2011 we set about starting to repair the slate roof of the Grade II* listed Silo on Cragend Farm. That work has been completed and the roof is water tight now.

We have now received some funding from The Country Houses Foundation to continue that work with some interior repairs to floors and stairs.

With this in mind we commissioned Jake, our son, to design the Silo in Minecraft so that everyone can have a virtual tour before the repairs go ahead.

The youtube video on the sidebar will take you inside and outside the building, with a brilliant insight into what is inside the building yet to be available fro all-to see.
