A manor kitchen with its stone aumbries cleaned, its range relined and new oak fitted around them.
The kitchen of a fifteenth-century manor, with two stone aumbries in the north wall and a range that had not been lit since 1958.
What we did
The aumbries were cleaned and given oak doors. The range was relined and now heats the room. Everything new, from the worktops to the shelves, is freestanding oak that can be lifted out without leaving a mark.
Then and now
Drag across the picture to see the building as we found it and as it is today.
In the rooms
“The range is lit from October to April. The room has never been warmer.”
Clare Hutton, owner
