Thousands enjoy self-build show
Thousands flocked to the Kent County Showground at Detling to discover how to build their own homes.
The Build It live exhibition featured more than 100 exhibitors specialising in everything from buying a plot and designing a home, to undertaking a major refurbishment or an extension.
The show was hosted by Build It magazine, and was its first visit to the showground, where it is now to become an annual event.
Claire Drakeford, spokesman, said: “We had around 6,000 visitors across the two-day show.
“They were able to benefit from inspiring free seminars and workshops, and gain the confidence to take on a renovation or building project.”
