    Had a quick look and I didn’t realise that picture at the top was a diorama!

    Pure Yestershires! Astonishing how many hundreds and thousands of hours each group of buildings took to research and hand build. Thanks for the link - I have a freebie magazine DVD of Pendon somewhere.
    Pendon is like a miniature Weald and Downland Museum, picking out typical vernacular buildings that were at risk of being being modernised or demolished and instead surveying rebuilding and preserving them https://www.wealddown.co.uk

    The man hours are indeed incredible. Weald and Downland museum is on my list of places to go, one day.
