This lovely 9 bay barn repaired by The Green Oak Carpentry Company has two porches at the ‘mid-strey’ in bays 3 and 7, giving wagon access to these and the other bays for loading and storage. The barn, kept as a single open volume of space, makes a wonderful wedding venue and is situated near Rickmansworth. Timber boarding is weathered oak left to colour naturally.
The porches have been added as new in a manner sympathetic to the original barn structure. Oak joinery is clad externally with the glazing retained with oak cappings, a patent glazing system has been used for the roof, all of which ensure trouble free operation and longevity of the primary timber frame of the porches.
Retention of as much of the historic fabric as possible is vital to a successful repair. A light touch is always better, as once lost the original structure cannot be put back. It is important to accept the quirkiness of the structure and make good decisions based upon sound conservation principles. Black metalwork has been used for the tie-straps, etc., lighting conduits and chandeliers, very much in keeping with the rustic aesthetic.
“"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
“"Seems a long time since we finished with the garden room project but we have to say that it has been a huge success in every aspect. The room has become the place of choice for visitors. I can guarantee that everyone, yes everyone who visits, is blown away by the frame."
Mel, Moat Farm
“"Just to say that it looks fabulous, and all who survey it are wonder-struck. Best wishes and many thanks to you all."
Simon, National Trust
“"Thank you for the frame that you have just finished at Rogate. It was a miserable wet day, yesterday and John and team carried on regardless. We are delighted with the overall look and also the mouldings to the members. As usual, the frame was millimetre accurate and will be easy to take forward to complete the building."
Bob, Trembath Associates
“"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."
