The Shields Buildings story is a long one. After all, we’ve been around for 30 years this month, so we’ve had our fair share of twists and turns.

While it’s cooled down a little bit over the last couple of days, and there are a few more showers on the agenda, I think it’s fair to say that the weather’s turned the corner in the last week.  After the bleak midwinter, the daffodils are out, and it really does feel like there are reasons for optimism everywhere.

There’s no one thing that makes our buildings great. Instead, it’s a combination of expert craftsmanship, high quality materials and hard-won experience.

It’s half term this week, which means our girls are at home…no change there then!

It’s -1 degree here in North Tawton, so it’s fair to say that no grass is growing right now.
