Hi Guys,

I registered after reading a great post on moving a Rayburn by 'Womble'. My wife and I bought a small place in Wales, totally unloved and in need of much TLC but in a great location and we love it. Looking for ideas on how to develop it.

We have been offered a deal to rent the land for grazing sheep but are reluctant to jump into anything. We haven't had the discussion in detail yet. We have to get the house habitable having spent all our spare money buying it! I can't see myself offering anything of value to this forum but will probably get a lot by belonging to it and learning from your experience.

Thanks for setting it up and running it,

Mike

 :wave: and welcome from Shropshire. John and Helen came on this site as newbies and have kept us entertained with a running commentary on how things were going, with lots of photos. They now have goats and sheep and chickens, so are getting there. I'm sure you could do the same. We all love to see how a property can develop from an idea into a working smallholding.

Good luck with your new place
