Crafting Legacy: A Testament to Tradition with Oak Winfrith Newburgh, Dorset

The Manor Gazebo

by Timber & Black

Within the grounds of a historic manor house in the picturesque village of Winfrith Newburgh, stands this magnificent oak gazebo, designed and constructed by Timber & Black. Built using our high-quality, European Oak beams, this stunning structure exemplifies timeless craftsmanship and enduring quality, and seamlessly blends traditional construction techniques with elegant design, offering a serene retreat outside of the house.

Design and Construction

The gazebo is a testament to traditional woodworking, featuring a hand-crafted, pegged oak frame. Each element of the structure is meticulously designed, utilising mortice and tenon joints; a method known for its durability and strength.

The oak frame sits elegantly on small brick pillars, adding a touch of rustic charm. A central glazed lantern crowns the gazebo, allowing natural light to flood through the roof and creating an inviting space that can be enjoyed in all seasons.

Craftsmanship and Quality

The oak used in this project was carefully selected, ensuring the correct grade and qualities were specified for the application, meeting both aesthetic and resilience requirements. The oak we supplied meets these requirements, offering both beauty and longevity.

Timber & Black's expertise in traditional joinery is evident in every aspect of the gazebo. The mortice and tenon joints, secured with oak pegs, highlight a construction method that has been perfected over centuries, and this approach not only ensures a solid and durable structure but also celebrates the heritage of traditional woodworking techniques.

A Structure Built to Last

This oak gazebo is more than just an architectural feature; it is a legacy piece. Designed to be passed down through generations, it embodies the principles of sustainability and enduring quality. The use of traditional building methods and high-quality materials ensures that this gazebo will remain a cherished part of The Manor property for many years to come.

The combination of Timber & Black's craftsmanship and Hewins' superior oak results in a structure that is both beautiful and functional. It stands as a testament to what can be achieved when tradition and quality converge, offering a space of tranquillity and timeless elegance.
