Built for a private client is Norfolk, the newly completed oak frame building stands on the brick base of the original structure. Greatwater lake has an abundance of water fowl and is an important conservation site.
Scaffold is up and the Norfolk water reed thatch is being installed.
Historic photographs were used to inform the design of the building which is a faithful reconstruction of what once stood on the site.
Internal view showing the arrangement of the dragon tie and dragon beam with ashlar post supporting the trusses above. The roof is pyramidal which allowed us the opportunity to form the trusses diagonally between the corners of the building creating a really interesting structure.
Pine sarking boarding completes the roof structure. The rowing boats and punt below are accessed through trap doors in the floor.
“"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
“"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
“"We have constructed several buildings using Oak frames designed, manufactured and erected by the Green Oak Carpentry Company. 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."
Robert, Trembath Associates
“"We wanted to write to you to express our profound gratitude for the excellent work you have done on our building scheme. It cannot have been easy to pick up the project from another architect when there were still a number of issues unresolved, but you have done so brilliantly and remained calm throughout, even at fraught times. We really do appreciate that you have gone the extra mile for us. We have all enjoyed working with you and have been so impressed with the quality of your work."
Alastair, The Early Years Project
“"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."
