Finchampstead is around twenty-five minutes from Ascot, south of Wokingham and running down towards the Hampshire border. It is a spread-out parish rather than a compact village, with a mix of older property, twentieth-century estate housing and larger houses on generous plots.
The plots are what shapes the work. Detached garages, workshops, stables and garden offices are common, and a good many are fed by supplies that were run a long time ago. Ordinary cable in a plastic duct, no separate protection at the outbuilding, and buried joints nobody can locate are all things we come across regularly out here.
Mature tree cover and damp, shaded ground add to it. Long exterior runs take a beating, and outdoor circuits are consistently the most common source of the intermittent RCD tripping we get called out to in this part of the patch. A board that goes off when it rains is almost always something outside.
