Clayton Cricket Club: New Clubhouse Building Work - 5th March 2011

It was freezing cold and drizzling this morning when I arrived at the Clayton Cricket Club ground to take a few photos of the building work on the new clubhouse, so (hard) hats off to all the volunteers who braved the weather to help out.
Work has really cracked on, especially considering that it's all being done in everyone's spare time (special mention to local builder, Paul 'Cornish' Cornforth who's generous donation of pretty much all his spare time is well and truly above and beyond the call of duty) and also considering several weeks were lost to the bad weather in December. The basic structure is up and the roof timbers were starting to be put into place so it's looking like a proper building at last. It's surprising how big it is compared to the old clubhouse, which was demolished back in October - CLICK HERE to see a few photos of that.
I'll be back in a few weeks to see how things are coming on but it all looks very promising.
