The space I allocated to the village falls inside the main track loops and is a modest 600mm * 800mm providing me with a challenge to develop a realistic but not cramped setting. The core was a series of Metcalfe buildings, cottages, the Norman church and the Stone-built Wayside Station Shelter (now discontinued), later supplemented by a scratch built manor house and various minor items.

These were early steps back into modelling and I soon became dissatisfied with the look of the original cottages and rebuilt them by overlaying Scalescenes printed stonework more typical for my setting. The dry stone walling so common in the region has DAS stones for topping and Scalescenes dry stone walling for the sides.

The garden is loosely based on my Grandfather's as best I remember.
