Oak - this "exceedingly glorious thing" has beeen turned into high quality buildings for centuries. Since medieaval times the wealth of house owners has been represented and displayed by the use of oak timber on their buildings, not only in a structural but also in a decorative manner (closely spaced timber, carvings and mouldings). Because of the durability of oak, after hundreds of years we are still able to appreciate these splendid buildings. Also hundreds of years later our craftsmen are making new buildings in much the same traditional way, ocassionally altering the style to suit our modern living requirements.

Adam Heath - Carpenter specialises in building new oak houses with decorative elements such as mouldings or carvings. Traditionally, the status of the owners or benefactors of a particular building was reflected in the designs of the mediaeval craftsmen. We continue this tradition - we turn a new house into home by adding hand made decorative and often personalised elements.
