As previously stated the weather in the UK is a little hit and miss and rain often upsets plans. So with a canopy planned to enable year round use of the BBQ area and wood burning oven (pizza oven) should allow me to cook and enjoy the outdoors whenever I want.
In Perthshire we can have all four seasons in one hour never mind the day.
With the plans roughly drawn up, I have identified I would like chunky timber construction, heavy timber beams that are jointed where they meet to add to strength and look of the canopy. I wanted two vertical posts that are set about 1 meter into the ground concreted in to add to the strength, with a longer overhang at the front to allow the chef to be able to stand a the BBQ and oven and still stay dry if its raining. I like the chunky timber framed look as it will go well with our 19th century barn.
As you can see the area I have to work with is a good size and being next to the patio should be a great spot for the BBQ and canopy. Lots of work to do. I have been in touch with
Glenalmond Timber in Methven just up the road and Martin there can have timbers cut to whatever size I need. More to follow on that.
That's all for now.
