Works at Fir Tree Cottage have now completed, adding a single storey extension to a traditional Cotswold cottage in Chalford, near Stroud. The design uses natural zinc which forms a lightweight canopy over the glass folding doors which open to the garden. The cottage is within the Chalford Hill Conservation Area and we used natural zinc as a complementary material to the original stone of the cottage. The zinc will weather and soften in appearance, similar to traditional leadwork found on such historic Cotswold properties.
