Brickwork for Nutley, close to the forest
Bradford Brickwork works throughout Nutley, a short drive from our base in Maresfield. 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.
Nutley sits on the southern edge of Ashdown Forest, and much of the village grew up along the main road rather than around a medieval centre. Its church is Victorian rather than medieval, so the oldest brickwork here tends to be in the farms and cottages set back from the road, where matching the brick and mortar colour matters most.

Local building character
Nutley's forest edge and windmill
Nutley Windmill, a Grade II* listed open trestle post mill, was moved to the village from Goudhurst in Kent around 1817 and worked until 1908. It stands on the edge of the forest and is one of the village's best known landmarks.
Unlike several neighbouring villages, Nutley has no Wealden District Council conservation area of its own, though a number of individual buildings are listed. St James the Less church was only built in 1845, later than many village churches nearby, and extended in 1871. That means Nutley has less old brick and stone to match than places with medieval cores, but the brickwork on its Victorian and later houses still needs care when it is repaired or extended.
Nutley, Fairwarp and Maresfield share a civil parish, and the village has long depended on the main road through the forest for its trade and its links to neighbouring villages.

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.
