I think if you can disguise the join between the buildings and their 'setting' it will add realism (perhaps you are planning to do this anyway...).

You can use sand, grit, ballast, static grass etc. whatever is to hand really.

Generally, good progress though. Happy new year (if you're on your own - listen to some Bluegrass whilst modelling ? I don't know why but my radio is nearly always on R4 !)

The back scene for Stowford has now been finished, I will now have to workout what I am going to do with the fore ground.

Stowford Station is being progressed along with its surrounds.

More detail added to the Stowford Station board.

The Station board is more or less complete it even has 2 lads in short pants on the end of the platform, I am waiting on delivery of some platform benches and a Western National bus.

The station board is looking really good.

The Bus and seats have arrived and been fitted so the Station board is now to all intents and purposes finished, the cattle wagon is a kit I have just finished and is awaiting a visit to the sign writers. On to one of the other boards now.

Diane Tape

The latest wagon kits freshly outshopped ready for service.

Work has commenced on the fiddle yard board scenics.

The Fiddle yard board is now more or less complete, so it's on to the middle board next.

The S & B Railway welcomes its latest purchase, fresh in from Europe a useful 0-6-0 Diesel.

Work has begun on the scenics of the middle board.

Work is continuing on the centre board, I will have to slow down or this lockdown project will be finished to quickly.

I know about that problem.
Back in May 2018 when I started my layout I worked on it for several hours almost every day, as a result what was envisaged as being a long term project was anything but. (there was  a good personal reason for that).
Since then the layout has been extended twice and parts of it have been redeveloped.

Work is progressing on the centre board, just the little details to add.
