Car Tyre Foundations

This is the start of a new build in Morayshire, Scotland. When complete it will be a 1½ storey, traditional style croft house. The Glen of Newmill is just outside the town of Keith with beautiful views of the surrounding area. Set within 8 acres the land is stony clay, the house will be built using strawbale and naturally plastered using clay and lime.
In this first course we will be building with car tyre foundations. Over the 3-days you’ll discover how to use an upcycled material which would otherwise go to land fill, you’ll also learn all you need to know about this is fantastic alternative for building foundations – and with NO concrete in sight!
Pete Summers will be teaching on this course. With many years’ experience and an outstanding reputation in the field of natural building, Pete ensures course participants have a fun, value packed week. We are looking forward to seeing you there!
