Brickwork near Little Horsted's red brick manor
Bradford Brickwork works throughout Little Horsted, just south of Uckfield. We take on brickwork jobs of every size, from a new front wall or brick piers to the brickwork for an extension or porch, plus chimney repairs and repointing.
The hamlet is best known for Horsted Place, a grand red brick Tudor Gothic house from the 1850s with a diaper pattern worked into the brickwork. Most other buildings here are far simpler, but matching the brick, mortar colour and bond still matters on every job, however small.

Local building character
Little Horsted's brick manor and church
Horsted Place, now a country hotel, is Grade II listed and was built in 1850 and 1851 in the Tudor Gothic style. It is built of red brick with a diaper pattern picked out in grey headers, stone quoins and a slate roof, a striking piece of Victorian brickwork.
The parish church of St Michael and All Angels is also Grade II listed, with a Perpendicular Gothic Revival tower, restored in 1863. Little Horsted itself has no conservation area of its own, so planning rules here mainly apply to the individually listed buildings rather than the whole hamlet.
The settlement is recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086, and the Levett family, early figures in the Wealden iron industry, had their first iron interests here before the trade spread across the district.

Repointing to gable and chimney.
A great job repointing the gable and chimney. Some of the bricks to the chimney needed replacing too. This was the second time of using Bradford Brickwork and as before we were very impressed. All work was completed on time despite a sudden downpour and the result looks great. Thanks very much!
Re-pointing front of Victorian house
Exceptionally high quality re-pointing work on front of Victorian house with lime mortar. The tradesmen were highly skilled and experienced and friendly and communicative. Highly recommended.
Repointing
Work was completed in a timely manner. I was happy with the quality of work and the fact that the site was kept tidy. If I have any more suitable work I will use them again.
Repointing
This was our first experience of having a wall repointed, but we needn't have worried. The team were friendly, polite and professional. Communication was good and they arrived and completed on time.
They did a great job and the wall looks great. I would certainly use Bradford Brickwork again.
Construction of retaining wall
Bradford Brickwork built a retaining wall in our garden, installing footings and a reinforced block wall to our engineer’s drawings. The team were very professional, extremely polite and they did an excellent job, completing the work on time and leaving the site in good order and I would recommend them to anyone with confidence.
Garden and patio redesign
Matt was able to discuss our patio and garden plans with us and and put them in to reality.
The end result is everything we had hoped for, we're really pleased with the result. We now have an eye-catching low maintenance garden.
We also had the house wall repointed.
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.
Superb Brickwork, Highly Recommended
The brickwork on our new‑build barn‑annex, including the chimney stack and a one‑metre perimeter wall, was completed to a superb standard. The team kept the site consistently tidy, worked with real pride, and showed genuine passion for the craft. Everyone was polite, respectful, and easy to deal with, making the whole process smooth from start to finish. Highly recommended for reliable, quality brickwork.
