Materials and Specification


Every element of our buildings has received the closest scrutiny with regard to aesthetics and engineering. Our concept is deceptively simple and based on traditional oak framed outbuildings. We draw on almost 40 years of experience of oak framing to deliver buildings of unrivalled specification and quality.
