Boarding out, from blockwork shell to painted room

These photographs show the lining package at the stage a builder sees it most: the shell watertight, first fix dropped from the ceiling, boards stacked on the floor, then every wall and ceiling boarded and ready for the plasterers. The last frame is an extension after skim and paint.

They come from more than one house. No location or size is attached to any of them yet.
