What's that wall on the right hand side of the photo on the right? Looks like it's just leaning there.

That's where I had to make the loft six inches less wide than the main part of the building because we'd already framed the walls on either side as if we were just closing in the end with a plain wall (if that makes sense.) We're going to join those two walls together....
