New Year Resolutions
Some ideas – we had to help:

Thatch Construction – Timber Framed
Many of our listed buildings are built with a timber frame but did you know that many new houses are being constructed this way too?
Wattle and daub, bricks or flints are some of the materials used between the timbers.
Thatch Construction – Cob Walls
Cob walls are made of subsoil, water and fibrous material e.g straw.
The walls are thick, naturally well insulated and must be allowed to breathe.
