In case the architect for village hall is amongst today's bloggees here is a couple of images of progress on the project which has progressed well since the two weeks or so since it was last featured in these columns. A thing of beauty is a joy for ever remarked the poet and this is no thing of beauty-not yet at any rate. The blanker side faces Kirk Lane which is almost windowless except for discreet apertures allowing frosted light for the loos and presumably for the Post Office. It is more impressive from the front-think Welsh Assembly and slightly squint, with a bit of imagination you will see what I mean. WA like there will be windows in the roof piping light through the false ceiling on to the bowlers within and beneath. A Badminton court will have its court markings permanently cut into the floor-thus giving Hutton an opportunity to dominate Berwickshire at Badminton as it does in Carpet Bowls. Heady days.
