Day 73 - Filling Retaining wall with Buckets of Concrete

With the blockwork complete the BarnBoys start mixing concrete and filling the cavity between the two lines of blockwork with bucket loads of concrete.

After years of being home to hay and straw, and cows rubbing their rumps against the walls, the barn is slowly being straightened and pulled back together inch by inch, millimetre by millimetre. It won't be long before the fabric straps and chains are replaced with steel plates to hold it in place for at least the next 100 years.
