Project Brief.

The property, under the care of the National Trust, required essential structural renovations due to deterioration in its original framework. The aging oak timbers had begun to rot, posing a significant risk to both the stability and historic character of the building.

The Delivery.

To preserve its structural integrity, we carefully replaced the decayed timbers with new air-dried oak, using traditional jointing techniques that honour the craftsmanship of the original construction.
