Works are now underway at Blencathra 🏡
We’ve started by carefully taking down the existing bungalow to make way for a bespoke new home, designed to complement its rural setting while bringing in a more modern, high-performing build.
The new property will combine timber frame construction with stone, zinc and timber finishes — creating a clean, contemporary feel that still sits comfortably in the landscape.
Stay tuned for updates as the project progresses. 🔨
Engineered precision. Natural beauty.
This glulam roof installation at our New Forest project combines timber, steel and existing structure with a clear, balanced design.
Clean lines. Strong form. Built to last.

On this project we’re installing Gutex wood fibre insulation — a natural material that delivers exceptional thermal performance while allowing the building to breathe.
Unlike many modern insulation products, wood fibre works in harmony with the building fabric, helping to regulate moisture, improve thermal stability and create a healthier internal environment.
It’s a material increasingly specified by architects focused on longevity, sustainability and high-performance building envelopes.
Thoughtful buildings start with thoughtful materials.

Precision in every detail.
The Glulam beams for our New Forest project arrived fully CNC processed — expertly cut, shaped, slotted, notched and drilled, with dovetail housings formed for rafters and ridge beams.
Meticulous off-site accuracy. Seamless on-site efficiency. Where structural elegance meets modern engineering.
