From Host's Nov '09 Report.
It took some time to see this one on the day due to a Council Van being parked right outside with the workers loitering in the guise of doing some kind of work.
Due to time spent at other sites on that day we were running very short on time. Ode to the joys of working evenings. So we decided against doing the side with all the pottery in that every seems to cover in favour of venturing into what we have now dubbed 'Hobbo Hotel'...
Thanks for looking
