Not sure tbh? If you look at the sat view. The house directly next door is a 4 bed detached. So you can judge of that but it's a good size.

Would that be a 24/4? Great bits of kit. What did you do for the other 90 mins while you were pouring Sewer connection is a bastard, nothing on site or nearby you can connect onto then?
