Excellent, glad to hear it.
Otherwise NR will no doubt have the British disease of erasing our history as quickly as possible. Just as our WW2 airfields are disappearing under new housing or wind farms, so our lovely old local wooden boxes risk being knocked down, to be replaced with a few windowless terrorist-proof bunkers in the middle of nowhere. So no more 'popping up the box for a quick chat and a cuppa'.
This really will be the end of an era. :(
