The Rectory Question
I found a nice building on the bay-of-e that was eminently suitable for the Rectory for the church.
There's one problem, its only got one door, and if you orient the building in what I believe to be The Correct Way Round, then the door opens on the side of the building opposite the church, meaning that the poor Vicar will have to walk round his house every time he Goes To Work.
I had a quick check; as we know the platforms on the layout are aligned north-south, and the altar in a Church is supposed to be on the East side (so you face the rising sun as you pray), could I actually move the church round, but nope, the church's position is fixed, its the correct way around (and so we know that the rear of the layout is "East"!).
So I was left with only one option, to add a door to the rectory. Luckily I have spare doors. I've got spare everythings.
The rectory was also clearly chimney-less, so a cocktail stick was employed.
The slice to make the door-fit isn't visible once its painted. Trust me.
Fence posts for the porch-sides, spare bit of something for the roof, piece of paper for the capping.
Application of some paint to the door and porch.
I also painted the timber-framing black to match that of the church closer.
I painted the front-door to match :)
