Love this build - we have a bat that visits our garden early evening so I've always thought about putting a box up but part of me thinks it would be pointless as we have a large area of very well established very old tall trees that are less than a minutes travel by wing away . The Leyland Chocolate masonry paint looks great too. I know what you mean about the weather in the higher parts of Wales I visited Devil Bridge whilst stay in Aberystwyth and as it was a hot day decided to wear my shorts to keep cool however whilst traveling up to the bridge in the mini railway carriage which are covered with half open sides and we entered the clouds the shorts combined with the mist and wet suddenly didn't seem the best plan but still such a very beautiful place and the natural waterfall was absolutely stunning.
I put four of those up in a area where common pipistrelles were known to be. Never saw any evidence of a bat. Lots of spiders and moths, so something had some use of them.

We are lucky to have such a beautiful Country
