Thursford Barn
2012

This Norfolk stone barn, originally built in c.1700, was completely repaired and reconfigured to create open plan holiday accommodation. All of the existing internal walls were removed leaving just the perimeter stone walls which measure 600mm in places. The existing stone walls were repaired with lime mortar and helix-bars in one gable end and a new insulated concrete slab floor, with underfloor heating, was created with timber floor boards laid on top. The roof was removed and re-laid with reclaimed materials and the roof trusses were strengthened with new steel flitch plates on either side of the timber structure.
