The Age of Oak - As Solid As Rock.
Why ‘Rock On Wood’ Neil?
Well, I Love Rock n Roll and playing my acoustic guitar helps me feel the resonance of wood, especially as my Workshop is in Rock.
In true Rock and Roll style, I’m surrounded by Breweries - Sharps and Bluntrock…..so why not come and see me, drop in and Enjoy a drop!
The St Enodoc Macrocarpa.
In the 1930’s at St Enodoc Golf Club, in Rock, a Canadian doctor came to live and planted a whole Avenue of Macrocarpa Trees on the Rock Road. Few are still standing. From the One Tree that Guarded, for many Decades, the Entrance to St Enodoc Golf Club this will be a Coffee Table presented to the Club.
The Big Stuff…
Whether it is Bespoke original sash windows and doors, Neil has an exceptional skill in Joinery.
And like a Tree with its roots going on forever, so his work is built to last.
Making Tables to create Memories, chairs that can tell stories…
And those decisions about Furniture are, of course, Yours.
