Traditional craftsmanship on a remarkable scale.
This project in Amersham saw the Stackwell Forge team commissioned to create a substantial collection of bespoke ironwork as part of the restoration of a magnificent Georgian estate.
Working closely with the client’s architect, we produced everything from large automated estate entrance gates and pedestrian gates to walled garden railings, rooftop railings and rare Spirex balustrading, all designed to complement the original architecture of the property.
One of the biggest challenges was the material itself. The specification called for genuine puddled wrought iron rather than modern mild steel, despite it not having been commercially produced for around 50 years.
Over 18 months, our team sourced the materials and traditionally forged each element, creating modern-day reproductions sympathetic to the character and craftsmanship of the original Georgian estate.
The finished designs were approved by both the client and the local conservation authority.
A project that perfectly demonstrates what Stackwell Forge does best: traditional forge work, specialist knowledge and bespoke ironwork created for buildings where the details really matter.
