The next part of the project was to build the structure of the main street where the houses will go, the power house and the Customs House and jetty.

There will be a canal running along side all this so bridges will cross at various points.

Underneath the main street will a secluded area for the Gentleman’s Club and other ‘entertainment’. The base sections are removable for later work and for dioramas etc.

I also started work on the old ‘medieval’ bridge and the road bridge to the Custom House, both of which were cut and constructed out of the sign board.

The road bridge has three supports and is glued to the main street side only and supported on a ledge on the other side to make it easier for storage later.

The last bit here was to start work on the arcade, making a multilayer piece to slide in with the quayside and shopping area.

While is was pottering away on that area I remembered another Victorian mode of transport that would fit nicely into there.
