Once part of the old Café building, this cross wing frame was lovingly restored in 1989. It is a good example of the quality of repair that can be achieved when the building is dismantled and repaired 'on the bench' before reassembly in its new location.
The hall is 14th century and is predominantly made from elm. Here we look from the open hall to the cross-wing passage with service rooms below (pantry and kitchen) and solar above. Evidence of smoke blackening is clearly visible on the main truss in the foreground. Note the collar rafter couple roof with no trusses.
The building has been moved for a second time from its former lakeside location to make way for the Museum’s new gateway building. Here we see the newly completed building with the later added 16th century cross wing. The building displays typical Kentish style framing with broadly spaced studs forming wide panels and with large ‘tension braces’. The building is from the North Downs near Canterbury.
“"Thanks for the excellent job which has just been completed on the Oak Frame extension to the above property. Not only is the quality of the work faultless, it is a true work of art, which will bring endless enjoyment to me and my wife. The end result has surpassed our wildest expectations."
Ray Nicolaides
“"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."
Paul, Contracts 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

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."
