Local building character

Medieval village in the High Weald

West Hoathly is an ancient settlement in the High Weald between the North and South Downs. The name derives from Old English meaning a heath-covered clearing. St Margaret's Church has Norman and medieval origins with a 13th-century nave and chancel. The church has a tower with Perpendicular Gothic spire. The terraced churchyard offers far-reaching views across the Weald. The village sits on a ridge of the High Weald landscape.

Many medieval houses and farms survive in the parish. Tickeridge, one of the oldest, is a timber-framed Wealden hall house with later gabled additions. Gravetye Manor, built as a substantial house for an ironmaster, stands 1 mile north of the village. The Priest House in the village is a timber-framed open hall-house, now a museum run by the Sussex Archaeological Society. Building traditions favour solid brick and timber-frame construction suited to the rural Weald setting.

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.

Repointing house wall

We needed one wall of our house repointed, but we also needed the ridge tiles replaced as well as the roof verges.
Matt was very knowledgeable and the brickie he supplied was really good and very helpful. Nathan went above and beyond.
They were really easy to get on with and did a superlative job.
I would thoroughly recommend and definitely use them again, if the need arises.
Definitely 20 stars !!
