Hand-carved architecture

Brian Hill, Stonemason creates hand carved, bespoke natural stone fireplaces using natural British limestone such as local Bath or Portland stone. Take a look at some of the made-to-measure designs that suit all property styles from modern to traditional.

We are more than happy to re-create stone fireplaces from your sketches and will guide you in terms of the dimensions and designs that will fit the size of your room.

Chimney stacks get exposed to the full force of the weather and can become unstable, undermining structure stability and can lead to eventual collapse. To withstand such conditions, maintenance or repairs need to be of the highest standard and it is important that design elements are properly conserved and restored.

Pier or gate caps provide the finishing touches to a gate post, pillar or pier and are ideal for a stone or brick gate pier.
