Construction begins on the renovation and extension of an 18th Century mill house in the Wiltshire countryside following planning approval.

Our country project, Stithcombe Mill in Mildenhall, which is situated on the River Kennet, has begun construction. This building, which was once an 18th-century water mill, is currently a family home that has been thoughtfully designed to maintain the original character and charm of the mill house’s architecture.

The building is in a unique position, with the River Kennet passing underneath the house, which makes the water management strategy key to protecting the home for generations to come. With this in mind, the building was carefully designed with sustainability and flood-resilient elements. We are in the process of collaborating closely with the contractor alongside the design team to produce a long-lasting family home.
