This attractive three bay barn is fully aisled down both the long walls and end walls giving it a lovely overall form both within and without. The central bay, called the ‘mid-strey’, is where the wagons once entered and left the building allowing the offloading and loading of goods to the bays either side. As is often the case the mid-strey has a gabled porch and in conversion to a dwelling, is often fully glazed as can be seen here. Aisled buildings bring the main posts of the structural Oak frame inside the external envelope, which then become known as ‘arcade posts’ as is the case here. A common and attractive feature of traditional timber framed structures.
Choosing the right engineer to oversee the justification of the structural oak frame as it undergoes repairs is vital. In this case Andrew Waring Associates were employed by the clients and in our view did a first class job. Through careful intervention and by adopting a ‘kind approach’ to the justification of the structure, much of the original frame has been kept intact retaining the unique character and beauty of the original carpentry.
“"I wanted to drop you a quick note to show my appreciation for your guys efforts today; they were a pleasure to have around the house and worked hard to get the frame up today."
Paul, Contracts Manager
“"Just a quick note to say thank you for sending such a great team to do the work. As well as clearly being very hardworking and hugely skilled, Mick, Andy, Clark and Dave were all exceptionally pleasant, considerate and cheerful guys to have around, and as such a huge credit to Green Oak."
Julia, Crabfields Farm
“"Everyone is very impressed with the finished result and I thought I would just take the opportunity of belatedly giving my thanks to you and your team for a job very well done. I have submitted the bridge for a Civic Society award for next year and have every expectation of its success."
P White, Northholt & Greenford Countryside Park Manager
“"Just to say that it looks fabulous, and all who survey it are wonder-struck. Best wishes and many thanks to you all."

We are pleased to confirm that their work is accurate, well detailed and delivered on time. They are knowledgeable and we find working with them easy and straight forward. We therefore have no hesitation in recommending them."
