Local building character
A downland street of flint and brick
Kingston near Lewes runs as a single street up the lower slopes of the South Downs, about two miles south of Lewes. There are 23 listed buildings within the conservation area, ranging from manor houses to farm workers' cottages.
Kingston Manor, the largest of the old farmhouses, has a 16th century wing built partly from material taken from Lewes Priory. It also has a later 18th century wing, faced in knapped flint with red brick window dressings and quoins. St Pancras's Church, built in the early 14th century, anchors the village.
The village uses a materials palette typical of the Downs: brick, flint, weatherboarding, red clay roof tiles and, on farm buildings, corrugated iron. Kingston was first designated a conservation area in 1972. From 2011 onward the South Downs National Park Authority has managed it.

Patio extension
Matt and his fab team recently extended my patio. It was just what I had in mind - the slabs matched perfectly and shingle was added by the fence so it matched existing work. They also tidied up like nothing ever happened. Amazing. Would highly recommend. Thank you!
Reliable and great work
Great work, great communication, sorted out the problem quickly and no fuss, even when the job expanded beyond what we agreed. Result is better than we had originally. Very pleased.
Brick soldier course for lintel above window
Looked at pics and assessed the job, came to quote. Saw that it was urgent, as my replacement window couldn’t be fitted as the lintel was close to collapse. Matt booked in the job for the next day and 2 of his guys did the work. All very professional.
Repointing & bricks replacement of townhouse
Mr Bradford provided a very competitive quote for re-pointing and replacement of damaged bricks of my sea-facing townhouse. The work was completed very professionally in a timely fashion. I am happy to recommend him.
Very satisfied customer
We had some areas of brickwork that needed repointing, and also some renovation and restoration of the bricks and stone. All of the work required was done with great skill, and we were involved in the decision-making at every step of the way. The main thing is that it all looks very good now, and it was very well priced.
Re pointing brickwork
The company Matt Bradford was excellent. Arrived when he they said they would. Took care to cover the work area and left it clean and tidy after work was done. His colleague James who did the work was friendly and very capable. Thank you both.
High quality work, very happy
Work to update our front steps - rebuild of two brick walls and new sandstone slabs on the steps - was carried out to a high standard. James who carried out the work explained to us each stage of the work, arrived on time each day, and was personable and respectful. I wouldn't hesitate to use this company again.
