Prince Charles gets into a scrape handling innovative ‘ecobricks’
The future king suffered minor injury and a splash of cement when he had a go a laying ecobricks at one of his eco-home schemes.
The Prince lifted a special block containing his heraldic emblem. He was wearing a high-visibility jacket and hard hat and he grimaced as he laid the block.
The Prince was visiting the Building Research Establishment’s Innovation Park in Watford to check out the progress on an eco-home designed by his own Foundation for the Built Environment.
Comment: We understand the grimace on his face had more to do with the pressure the block placed on cuts on his hand (caused when gardening at Highgrove) rather than the weight of the brick itself!
