Welcome to our Website
A number of years ago, myself, Stephen Graham, and my wife, Rhona, started to plan an eco-house on the croft in Skerray on the north coast of Sutherland.
We are building into a hillside with earth-rammed tyres, essentially the same as an earthship, but with a first floor of strawbale walls.
After many years of planning we are now underway with the build and currently pounding tyres with every spare minute we have. We are fairly relient on volunteer labour so if you are interested in learning a bit about building with earth-rammed tyres or any of the other methods we are using and would like to lend a hand (or just want to come for a look) please get in touch via the contacts page.
You can see what the latest developments are on the Latest page (assuming that I've got round to updating it recently!).
We have also included some basic information on the construction methods on the construction page. Again if you would like to know more of the details or want some advice on your own project, contact us and we'll see what we can do.
Hope you enjoy having a look around.
