There are plenty of references to costs in Leftpondia, but nowt I can
find for this side of the herring pond.


I'm in the market for somewhere to live, and there are a couple of empty
plots nearby.


If it comes up almost as cheap as buying somwehere older and doing it
up, I'd maybe prefer it.

"It's perfectly possible to build a three-bed home for around £150,000."

Well unless that's including the cost of the land that's very much on the
high side, so of course "it's perfectly possible". It's possible to do it
for half that.


I'd have thought so. You can surely buy them round here for that *sort*
