National Trust Oak frame partition and soffit ceiling

Architectural Oak Frame Partition
Client: Winchester City Mill, National Trust
Working in partnership with R Hall Traditional Oak Framing ICR were commissioned to design, manufacture and install a traditional oak frame partition to provide an architectural division between the working mill floor and interpretive gallery and a new catering and refreshment area

Using hand tools,  heritage skills and period construction techniques the frame was manufactured and jointed in regionally sourced air-dried oak and fastened with oak pegs

The project was complemented by the installation of an integrated balustrade and stairway handrail
