  1. yes i live in a cob. Im a corn. Im a corn in a cob. (that doesnt really make sense)


  2. check the permaculture assn http://www.permaculture.org.uk or magazine http://www.permaculture.co.uk

    or the centre for alternative technology http://www.cat.org.uk -  their main building is made from rammed earth, a modern take on cob, well worth a visit.

    An affordable housing scheme at Elmswell was going to be earth blocks, but had to go back to timber because local clay was unsuitable. http://www.limetechnology.co.uk/pages/pr...

    main rule is "keep the head & feet dry" eg big overhanging thatch.
