The Restoration of Kempland Farm

We first saw Kempland in absolute pouring rain- arguably the best conditions in which to see it – if we liked it then, surely it couldn’t get much worse? This is some of our story as we endeavour to restore a family home and a working farm. Join us on our journey as we document the transformation of a neglected farm into a vibrant home through an interactive visual diary.
