The one on tonight looks like a place on one of my regular cycling routes in Dinton, Bucks. A sort of ruined tower which has been rebuilt over the past few years. Should be a good one if so...

Location for this is listed as Dinton, not too far from us either.

I'm chatting with my father on whatsap while watching (we're both builders) and it would be funny if it wasn't real.

That build was quite big, mind. And since it was listed...

So 15% of budget on groundworks!

This could be epic or painful.

£5m build, £5m to pay off English Heritage to stop being their usual time wasting pedantic selfs.

Hmmm... 3 Architects, 2 builders, how many quantity surveyors (2?)... going through people like that usually points to the client being a .

It was the listed people he mentioned, but it sounds like their both as bad as each other.

I'd bet a huge amount on this place having a very damp smell about it.
