Honest repairs

The main stone farmhouse and surrounding historic building were in a semi derelict condition and were surrounded by very large modern open cattle barns.

All the modern structures were removed and the farm house restored to a high standard.

Our approach stayed true to the houses original traditional style, with all repairs and conservation work complimenting the original structure.
