Porthcastell Harbour begins to take shape. A mild weekend meant I could get out and pour the concrete for the harbour area. The harbour wall with it's stone effect face had been cast and set in place before Christmas. I'm going to use the concrete slab to store materials while I clear and then construct the next section.(28th January 2015).
