    There is a British couple of father and son who clean (usually elder) people’s backyards overtaken by brambles, and what I have seen them do with the piles of green cuttings, they run the weedwacker over the pile, over and over (they re-pile and run it again several times), and basically create mulch out of it. They are called Flawless Cleaning I believe, and they are awesome. But I think this could be a good option for you guys.
    Just now catching up on all the videos.
    Best of luck to you both! Much love from Florida 💚🐊

      Hi GuanabacoaGuajiraGuanabacoa, thank you for watching and commenting.
      We tend to do that with the lawn mower when we have a lot of brambles and just keep chopping it, which works well, but we haven't tried with the ivy. Maybe we need to add it to our to do list. We will have a watch of them and see.
      Good luck catching up and sorry for the bad quality for a lot of the early videos.
      Thank you again :-)

    First of all, congratulations on achieving 2,000+ subscribers. I have to admit that the overgrown vegetation is driving me crazy, if I were there I would go at it like a wildman :) Looks like the middle outbuilding can be made into a nice shed. Eventually, you might want to add another course of stone or block on the front side to increase the slope of the roof a bit. Looks like the roof beams might need replacing but i suppose you don't get much snow load in your area so it may be ok. Will be fun to see what you can do with the outbuildings when you get to it in a year or two.
    Best regards.

      Oh, the overgrown vegetation is driving me nuts too, as soon as I have a little free time I’m out on the land! Yes, there isn’t much of a slope on the roof, I’m hoping in time we can replace the concrete blocks that were put in with stones…so maybe the time to slope it then or reinstate what is suspected was originally a gable end.

    Good job- best way I have found to remove the small and large ivy stuck to walls is a large old screw driver and or chisel. It gets under the root easily and a simple back and forth action to get it off with very little damage if any to the stone. It’s very rewarding seeing it gone. Also white vinegar at the roots on the ground

    • @thecornerhouseproject
      @thecornerhouseproject  ปีที่แล้ว +1

    That’s such a huge task but really satisfying for you to see progress, good to get outside. I know what I would do once the house is finished, take the middle building down and use the stone to restore the end one and the one in the field, you’d also have full sight of most of your land from your house, but, it’s not my home it’s yours ❤

    • @thecornerhouseproject
      @thecornerhouseproject  ปีที่แล้ว

      I love your thinking with being able to have full sight of the land! That would be lovely, but not sure I could knock a building for it..I’d feel too bad. Lol we’re quite lucky in that there are soo many stones dotted around the land we should have plenty enough to fix the outbuilding. ❤️

  • @kimrafferty7170
    @kimrafferty7170 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    What fantastic progress you are making, I wouldn't even know where to start with the grounds, one of the you tubers I watch also has a lot of brambles and one thing he said was instead of battling to clear them he uses them as a hedge, which actually makes sense as it will just be a case of keeping it trimmed with hedge trimmer a couple of times a year.
    I have also started watching The Irish Homestead, it's a family from Stockport who have bought a property similar to yours and in their last video they were talking about a grant you can get to renovate derelict property's, you can get upto 70,000 euros but they won't pay for any work you have already done. I don't remember you ever mentioning about a grant but as soon as I heard about I thought of you.
    Hope you have a good week, love to you both xx

    • @thecornerhouseproject
      @thecornerhouseproject  ปีที่แล้ว

      Wow what an idea with the brambles being a hedge! I will have a look on the land and see if we could maybe do that in places…unfortunately they seem to favour areas in the middle of the land more than the edges 😂 typical!
      Yes we also watch the Irish Homestead too, lovely place they have there!
      No, we didn’t go for the grant in the end….we did think about it, but decided against it for a few reasons….you only get 13 months to complete the work you would be claiming for and have the money upfront to get the work done and you can’t start any of the work you would claiming for until your application has been approved and we needed to get cracking straight away with sleeping in the tent! Haha Also what if the work we did wasn’t good enough lol and they didn’t award it back to us…There are also clawbacks put against the property too by the council. I can’t quite remember the percentages but you would be liable for paying back either all or a percentage of the grant if you had to sell the property within in a certain time frame. Not that we are planning on selling anytime soon but you never know what life will bring you. I think in certain circumstances it is a good grant, but just not for us unfortunately. We also really didn’t want the added pressure of trying to get it done within the 13 months….we’re not the quickest of workers 😂 xx

      They don't look as nasty now do they. The lime (what is left of it) and stones can start and get some air around them again and the ivy will be much easier to get rid of fully.
      Even all of this time later, it still tries to have a little grow out of a hole in the walls. Once we spot it, it isn't there for long.

    Golly, what a intruding secret garden…LOL. I love the look of ivy but it is so destructive. I recently saw using a combination of vinegar, salt, and dish soap, when applied, will kill it off at the roots. I’m not sure with the size of ivy you have but maybe applied to the small stuff just starting to grow might help the future of your out buildings. Smart move though, once winter sets in at least you have plenty to do in the house, but arranging some use of one of the buildings now was some good fore-thinking. I love watching you reveal your home even in the garden.

    • @thecornerhouseproject
      @thecornerhouseproject  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It’s a great piece of land, we love it! Can’t wait until we can get really stuck in to it! I’m with you on the Ivy…it looks great trailing up and over a building…but wow sooo destructive, especially when it’s been left to it’s own devices for the best part of 2 decades! Strangely somebody else said exactly the same thing about the Ivy and vinegar, salt and dish soap. Will give that a try as well!
      I think we really need some outside storage space sorted, so will try and get that sorted out sooner rather than later.😊

  • @wandakoehorst8734
    @wandakoehorst8734 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Looking at the row of outbuildings I suspect that that was the original very old farm. Maybe 400 yr old or even much older. The outbuilding where you find fireplace traces on the floor had a chimney and was lived in maybe together with animals for extra warmth in winter. These were built with only natural available stones and trees cut from local area. The original roofs were probably made of flat stones piled on top of each other.
    Your "house" was built much later and put in front of the much older farm. Maybe only 100-150 years ago. They never would have built the big house behind the original farm because than was less usable acres to grow crops on which they needed for themselves. So that is why I think that the big house is built so close to the corner of the road in order to lose as less as possible productive soil. But you've got a rough gem. It will be very beautiful once restored.

    • @thecornerhouseproject
      @thecornerhouseproject  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Wouldn’t it be great if there were photographs so that we could see back that far into time! I think you could be right with the outbuildings being dwellings a long long time ago. I’m not sure if I can put a picture up on the community area of our youtube page but I’ll have a look and if I can, I’ll put the aerial photo that we have of the house and surrounding area taken 40+ years ago.

      @wandakoehorst8734 Already on it lol I love a bit of genealogy so it was one of the first things I did when we were in the process of buying the house. The same family have lived and worked this land for at the very least 220 years up until 15-20 years ago. We've met 3 of the family members that lived here as children so far...it's been great to hear about the house and the way the land was used and the animals and crops that were grown just on the plot we have! I will get on with getting that aerial photograph that we have on the community area and maybe get Ben to stick the drone up at the same place to see the comparison. 🙂

      Heating for the house at the moment is from an old (very old) Stanley range in the kitchen that, even though, it’s on its last legs…it chucks out a fair amount of heat! We are hoping to get the living room chimney uncapped so that will give us some heat the other side of the house. Hopefully in time we will have a boiler and radiators as well.

    Well they say " a change is as good as a rest" but L guess you needed a good rest after making such a change around your ground. I hope you have been careful not to disturb any Leprechauns in the Ivy, you don't want any more bad luck. I wonder if the separate Outbuilding was the original Cottage! 😘😘

      Lol no we don’t want anymore bad luck 😂 it’s highly possible that long ago it may have been a house. It was lovely to have a little break from doing the same thing. Xx

    Call me pretentious, but I might refer to the out buildings as Cottages😊

      @thecornerhouseproject  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Not pretentious at all as the one we don't own was a house (cottage) and possibly the hidden building was also a house. The one with no roof was a cow shed and the flat roofed building was where they kept the pigs. So you aren't being pretentious, you are actually right 👍

    Your just killing urself there doing the back garden. A few hours with a mini digger and the job would be done. Put a drain or too in as well. It’s the only way to get roots etc out. Great location but a lot of work.

      There will be a mini digger in the next few weeks to do various jobs and fingers crossed we can clear some of what is behind the outbuildings out the back. Drains are on the agenda too.

      @@thecornerhouseproject plan what u are going to do with it. Maybe use the big wide grading bucket to scrap the garden into two pile one for burning and one for burying. Then see what u have and do the drains. Best to get someone to drive that has experience. U can get a lot done in a day with a digger.

    I get 3 goats to give you a hand . Emm helping mouth they'd eat all that brush. They'd need tying up with a screw in the ground and the circled top turns 360 degrees. Generally speaking, yes. Goats eat many Ivy varieties, including Common Ivy and English Ivy. They also eat Poison Ivy which is known to cause a nasty rash for many humans but is devourable to goats. That would give you time to reach milking And I know nothing about Ireland and goats breedsI had 3 to clear my place and there's 2 typesone that comes on heat once a year and 2 that comes into heat every month. I had one at rest, one milking and one pregnant. Gestation is 150 days, (5 months) and lactation goes for 300 days (10 months) and they give anywhere from 2-3L a day. and I admit to having crossover milking time for cheeses etc. Which leaves you more time to stack limbs to use in the fire But don't have a billy When goats are in heat the bleat like the cow and wag their tail and find a farmer close at the first sign/ The main reason not to have a male goat is that they have a strange idea that is. The think they're sexer peeing on themselves and on their females which taints the milk. So Billy reeks. But if you do decide to have a Billy get a hazard suite lolol sorry so ;long But I just seen what your up against. TT will have nothing in episodes lololololol But your both Hi5 your doing well for Newbies you might not know what your doing but you're both entertaining bc you're describing what your doing when you're doing it 10 outta 10. So you use to watch TT. Then you know what I'm saying but you don't think so You think 2 boring old ....., whose was so excited about 200 years of history. Oops 6k of subscribers who are still watching you (is that a U2 song and this one episode was out 6 months ago

      Thank you so much for all the info with the goats that’s amazing thank you! I had read about the billys and what they think is attractive to do! Eww! 🤣
      Oh yes used to love watching TT, I watched a TH-cam video the other day of the 3 best farms that TT uncovered just for some pointers but the farms they were uncovering were much grander than ours! 😂 so it didn’t give me any clues as to what ours ‘should’ look like. It’s been amazing to see it appearing bit by bit.
      Thanks again for your lovely comment and encouragement and also the info on the goats and it is something we will definitely look into getting.

      Sadly it is far too hard to please everyone in one video but we do take note of all the comments people make and try to chop and change things from time to time. Some people prefer time lapse, some prefer narration and others like a mix of all things TH-cam.
      Thanks for watching though and taking the time to comment.
