The 'House'
We’ve had The Straw-Bale House, The Throwaway House (from the skips), and The House from the Woods.
In 2010, by popular request, we are to have Straw-Bale House Mark II. This will explore how this type of construction
can meet modern building regulations, as well as high insulation standards. You will be able to see and discuss
different approaches to this technology, and also question Shropshire Council staff on planning and related issues.
