New windows plus decorator

The two top windows have had new frames made around the existing casements, as the previous ones were as rotten as week old peaches. The window you can see below the ladder has been made from scratch to replace the french doors that were there previously.
By the way, the word "casement" always makes me think of the poem, "The Highwayman". It actually mentions "casement" four times. That must be a record! To read the whole poem- one of my absolute favourites as a teenager- go to http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-highwayman/
I shall now imagine Bess sitting at our bedroom casement, letting down her long black hair into our courtyard! I'm not sure how the highwayman would get his horse over the wall though!
