Old Pictures of the Lodge
October 3rd, 2003 by Robert
During a small tidy up we came across a couple of interesting bits and pieces including a report of work to be done during the renovation, which took place in 1980. This report includes a number of pictures we estimate that the were taken during 1979. While they don’t show Gearstones in its current state (or inside) they may be of interest to anyone who has ever visited.
These pictures can be seen on the 1970 Photos page in the history section.

According to http://www.daelnet.co.uk/ The Name Gearstones means:
Gearstones- The stony triangular plot of land (Old English)
Just thought I’d let you know.

Aerial View

I have been sent a nice photo of a pre-charity aerial view of gearstones. Until I sort out a photo system, I’ll just post a thumbnail version of the picture on here for now. The full image should hopefully but up on the site within 3 weeks, along with a few other updates I’ve been working on.

Dining Rooms
November 25th, 2001 by tim.naylor
Both dining rooms are currently undergoing refurbishment.
Out will go the old unused fireplace and the hatch will be blocked off.
New flooring will be laid through both rooms, in oak laminate flooring (Easier to keep clean). The centre wall will, hopefully turn into a feature wall. The remaining walls will be timber clad all around the rooms to a height of 4ft.
