The build

SC I also like it a lot 

At the seaside town of Hornsey they have a lot of houses covered in hand sized beach pebbles pushed into render   think that’s what it’s called would that work for you?

That’s exactly what our architect said no to. After chatting with a builder today who did our foundations. It would of been possible if we’d made our foundation a little bigger.  Because apparently to do that we need strong foundations and block work. As we were told know we didn’t do that. So we can’t do that now anyway. I’m sure we’ll think of something     .
