A personal project inspired by the wonderful book by Orlando Weeks.
After reading and falling in love with The Gritterman, we set out to build a 60cm x 40cm Z-scale miniature layout, bringing to life the charming buildings described in the book. The scene features a Post Office, pub, vet’s clinic, snooker hall, wood yard, garage, and police station—all meticulously crafted to capture the book’s nostalgic atmosphere. To enhance the magic of the story, we incorporated LED and fiber optic lights for realistic house lighting and adorned the trees with fairy lights, evoking the warmth and wonder of a Christmas night.
