We’ve recently had the pleasure of being involved in the renovation and refurbishment of a huge stone farmhouse in the rolling hills of South Yorkshire. We’ve supplied property developer Lisa Hunt with a comprehensive range of wrought iron lighting and curtain poles to help transform ‘Spicer Manor’ in to a luxury 15-bedroom holiday let....
We may have mentioned it before (just a bit) but we once made some curtain poles for one of the castles on Game of Thrones. We’re not sure which castle, Winterfell, Riverrun, Casterly Rock …but it’s still our little ‘claim to fame’ connection to the smash-hit, blood-thirsty TV drama. I have tried to look...
Bilting Court is a beautiful period property in Kent’s Stour Valley dating back to the 15th century. Years ago, we supplied ironwork throughout for this stunning country home.

We’ve recently helped a theatre re-purpose miners’ lamps to use them as house lights in their auditorium. It was a pleasure to be involved in the refurbishment at the Lamproom Theatre in Barnsley. Miners’ lamps were once essential pieces of kit for the men who used them to safely light their way through the...
We have some rather stunning ‘before and after’ shots to share with you. They feature authentic cartwheel chandeliers in a medieval barn, both before and after we got our hands on them … Hooton Pagnell Hall is an ancient manor house in South Yorkshire which has been in the Warde-Norbury family for 300 years. When Mark and Lucianne...
