Lymehurst was built in the 1920s, 1924 to be exact. All the houses in the cul-de-sac were built for proffessional people working in the area at that time. So Lymehurst has certainly seen it's share of storms throughout the years.When I bought Lymehurst in 2007 the surveyor did warn me that the roof would need doing. The last two winters when we had really cold weather for a long period defintely had the effect of speeding up the de laminating of the tiles, so making them more porous to the rain and frost. So when more and more bits of tiles landed in the gutters I felt that I needed to take the bull by the horns and get the roof re done. The added problem when you have a B&B is considering the loss of business it'll incur. Hence the decision to have the job done in January!! The weather has been really bad for the last couple of weeks, wind , rain and storms....worst possible weather for roofers. Now the scaffolding is up I'm hoping for better weather.
In 2007 my mum left Yorkshire to pursue her dreams of running a Bed and Breakfast. Lymehurst has been open for business since 2009, this blog will tell its story
