The
timeless beauty and strong heritage of Marley’s Hawkins Fired Sienna clay plain roof tile made it the perfect specification choice for the four new homes
development in Welford on Avon, near Stratford upon Avon.
Situated
in the picturesque Warwickshire village, the four new detached houses had to
fit seamlessly into the surrounding country landscape, while also meeting
strict planning regulations.
With this
in mind, the selection of the Hawkins clay tile in Fired Sienna helped provide
the perfect finish to an exquisite addition to the village.
Keith
Greenall, Managing Director for developers, Templeoak Ltd, said: “The mock
Tudor architectural style, incorporating natural materials such as oak for the
new homes, meant we wanted to find a roofing solution in keeping with the
overall look we had established.
“The
development required a clay tile which perfectly matched the aesthetics of
other properties within the village. Working with Marley, we selected a sample
of the Hawkins Fired Sienna range and submitted it to the local planning
regulators for approval. The planning committee was happy with the choice as
the clay material and finish aptly suited the ambience and style of the
development and the local area.”
Over
50,000 tiles were used to complete the four individual roof spaces and were
straightforward to install, when the initial build commenced in February 2018.
Daniel
Redfern, Marketing Campaign Manager for Marley, said: “The Hawkins clay plain
tile range offers heritage, quality and versatility. Available in a range
of five stunning colours, the single
camber range offers unrivalled performance and versatility thanks to a low 30⁰
minimum pitch capability.
"Made using the
most modern firing techniques, this high quality clay plain tile is also
accredited to the BES 6001 Framework Standard for Responsible Sourcing, which
means projects using the Hawkins clay plain tiles can get extra credits under
BREEAM.”
