TIMBER FRAMED BUILDINGS

Timber framed buildings for equestrian and rural use

Bespoke timber framed buildings designed for their purpose and their setting, from stables and American barns to field shelters, tack rooms and agricultural buildings. Designed in Devon, built across the West Country, the UK and the Channel Islands.

Why choose a timber frame

Timber framing is our speciality, with four decades of experience behind it. Sustainable timber is warm, natural and breathable. It weathers into the countryside rather than standing out from it, and it’s ideal for buildings that house horses and livestock.

Every timber building we make is designed from a blank sheet around your site, your animals, how you work and what you want to spend.

What we build in timber

Timber or steel? We’ll help you decide

Timber suits most stables, barns and smaller agricultural buildings. Where steel suits the job better, we can supply steel-framed buildings designed and specified with the same care.

Tell us what the building needs to do and we’ll give you independent, unbiased advice on the right frame for your project.

Finished to a standard you’ll be proud of

From the overall size and layout down to doors, windows, partitions and fit-out, every detail is designed around you. We can also supply and fit:

  • Full tack room fit-out
  • Automatic drinkers
  • Horse showers and solariums
  • Full wiring, including solar and CCTV cameras
  • Rainwater harvesting systems
  • Tie posts and finishing touches

Design, planning and build in one place

Use us for the whole project, or just the stages you need. We offer an independent, unbiased design consultation, design and drawings, planning applications and structural calculations, right through to building and fitting out. We can also design in solar panels and rainwater harvesting from the start, so your building is future-proofed rather than retro-fitted.
