    Is it grounded ?  Can you leave a door open?

    Not quite understanding the layout, if it's at a higher level can you not open windows!

    What would happen if there was a fire downstairs? How would you escape?

    Hopefully the smoke alarms would warn us immediately and the fire suppression would kick in !

    Almost certainly a swallow rather than swift or house martin. Presumably it died? From what's been written, it doesn't sound like the converted barn meets Building Regs. I think that is happening more and more.
