Being fully aware that the weather is about to change soon, the volunteers have been concentrating on outside jobs. Therefore the western gun position has now been fully painted and protected from the weather soon to change. Likewise the four windows that were received recently have been painted, lime mortared in and stonework replaced where missing, they are now externally ready for the winter weather. These windows are now sealing against the elements 3 more rooms, these being 1 in the barrack kitchen, 2 in the coal room and the final window in casemate No 1. We can now work in these rooms during the winter months.
