BRIEF
A full refurbishment of a Grade II listed manor house.
WORK
Stage one involved the a complete re-build and restoration of a collapsed stairwell using traditional stonework and lime mortars to the the listed building requirements. Oak-trusses were incorporated into the stairwell and the structure was re-roofed with traditional slate. In stage two a new kitchen extension was built with green-oak timber and reclaimed stone and roofed with traditional slate. The manor house was completely refurbished throughout with new lime-plaster and built new windows to match existing. New en-suite bathrooms were added to remodelled bedrooms. Attention to finishing included rebuilding oak doors and frames. A new kitchen was remodelled to a contemporary style including bespoke kitchen worktops and butchers blocks.

TESTIMONIAL
“We worked closely with Paul Canham in the construciton of our cookery school building and were impressed with the attention to detail across the build. This project came under pressure at times from design challenges, weather and planning issues, but throughout Paul was always positive, proactive and committed to achieving a fantastic result. We never felt there were any corners being cut and we always felt we were in good hands. The building was finished to an incredibly high quality and 3 years on the building still looks very good. We have subsequently worked with StoneWood Build to extend the school with decking and additional office space. We can highly recommend them for your project.”
