Nymphsfield barn conversion looks impressive with Beechfield's own new quarried Cotswold Stone tiles

 

Distinguished stone roofing is one of the hallmarks of the Cotswold's architectural heritage and is world renowned for its natural beauty and aesthetics.

 

Available from Beechfield Reclamation is a range of hand- cut stone roofing tiles in a huge range of sizes.

 

Nympsfield is a gorgeous, traditional village, nestled amongst the valleys of the Cotswolds. A large barn and several outhouses were being converted to accommodation and were in need of roofing materials. The tiles were required to fit into the current surrounding by appearing aged and natural, be competitively priced as well as complying with the English Heritage Policy.

 

The stone roofing slates supplied by Beechfield Reclamation Company Limited suited all demands and as seen by the following images look beautiful as well...

French Cobbles arrive at Beechfield

 

After an extensive search for a duplicate of Sarsen Cobble we have discovered this reclaimed cobble from Northern France. Taken from old tram ways around Paris the cobbles are an identical match to the Sarsen stone found in the Wiltshire Downs. We have plenty in stock, so if you fancy a walk through the streets of Paris (somewhat!)  then please get in contact with us

Jon Robbins stops smoking

A nasty bout of pneumonia at Christmas and the impending ban of smoking in public places in July has made Jon think seriously about his habits !!. Thus he has decided to pack in the weed.  However  we are very concerned with the side effects,  it  seems that he gets very hot whilst dancing and  is unable to remain decent.

Jon Robbins starts work early !!!

Jon finds it very difficult to remove himself from bed in the mornings and struggles to get him self to work even at 8am, by 4pm he is thinking of opening time at the local pub,

However as the following pictures show he recently undertook an early morning assault on a suburb of central London. All in the name of Elephant disposal. The pictures should illustrate the abilities of our transport fleet !!, by delivering this animal to a safe home. This particular morning he  left our yard in Devizes by 5am in the Morning, his partner Rachel is reported to have said that he was still moaning about the early start at 9pm the following day.
