Country diary: Back to meet an old friend – my first thatch | Tom Allan
Dartington, Devon: It’s been 13 years since I was last on the roof of this 14th century longhouse, and neither of us are as we were
'I’m thatching the Cott Inn, a Devon longhouse, and it’s a noteworthy moment as, after 13 years of thatching, I’m back at the first roof I worked on as an apprentice'
A charming piece from @tomallanwriter.bsky.social, whose book #OnTheRoof is out in paperback in June.
