Once they were carried up to our property, the only that needed to be done then was to manually lift them up on top of the extension. Fortunately though, with a little help they were soon being man handled up onto the scaffolding. Incidentally, in the photo below, they appear to be resting against next doors chimney, they are actually resting against the scaffolding, it is just the position I was stood in when taking the photo.

The roof trusses have been delivered today. The only problem is they were delivered on the back of an articulated lorry, there is no way he was ever going to be able to get around the tight turns to where we are. The only answer was for them to be offloaded down the road and temporarily be left at a neighbours house. What makes this even more challenging is the weather, it has been raining all morning and it is forecast to get worse throughout the day.
