At Carpenter Oak & Woodland, we’re more than happy to be judged on the quality of our work – oak timber-framed buildings (including timber frame offices and timber frame homes) all around the UK and our many appearances on television and in the printed media.

New oak framed house, Gloucestershire

The clients owned a Victorian schoolhouse on a sizable plot. For some years they had their eye on another plot in the village with lovely views which would allow them to downsize. The plan was to use the funds from the plot in their existing garden and the sale of their own house to fund the project.

Greensted House, Ongar, Essex

In early 2010 the agricultural buildings at Greensted House Ongar burnt to the ground. Of the stables, bull pen and 18C barn, sadly only the masonry walls remained.

Jubilee Pavilion, Queen’s Park, Crewe

The construction of the Jubilee Pavilion is part of a massive restoration project by Cheshire East Council to transform the whole of Queen’s Park in Crewe.

Latest case studies

Field Farm

Wiltshire

Field Farm is a single storey building, based around a simple L-shaped layout, which combines an oak frame with local stone. The open-plan building forms the heart of Marshfield Organic Farm, a small family-run business that provides traditional, hand-reared organic meat through farmers’ markets.

Chiddingstone Castle

Chiddingstone, Kent

Whilst several gridshells have now been built using different technologies, none had until now been constructed to support a frameless glass roof. When we were approached by engineers Buro Happold to build a radical new roof for the orangery at Chiddingstone Castle, our inquisitive nature got the better of us!

Highfield

Worcestershire

When the publisher Felix Dennis decided to build his new house to celebrate the work of Robert Louis Stevenson, and particularly Treasure Island, he turned to Carpenter Oak & Woodland for the substantial timber frame.
