Royal Oak Public House, Eydon, Northamptonshire

None of the "old English pub" atmosphere has been lost in the complete renovation of the 18th century Royal Oak (pictured top, centre). The pub was purchased from the landlady of 50 years by our client who asked us to redesign the interior in period style, the results were remarkable. The Royal Oak's popularity has led us to be asked on numerous occasions to create extra rooms and additional seating for this popular village pub.

Office Conversion, Chipping Warden, Oxfordshire

Appletree Farmyard (pictured right) has been converted from an existing farm estate office and barn into a modern office complex. Care was taken to ensure that the new offices still blend in with the architecture of the area. This project was short-listed for a local architecture award in 2001.

Shoe Shop, Northamptonshire

The Shoe Shop in Woodford Halse dominates the centre of this busy village, so we have many items to consider with pedestrian and vehicular access. As the building is such a recognisable feature we also have to try and be as subtle as we can and consider all surrounding buildings with any schemes we implement.
