Thatched new builds in Somerset
The first of two new thatched properties in the South West are almost complete.
Bovis Homes included the properties as part of a development near Wookey Hole in Wells Somerset.
The first was thatched by Nigel Bunce of Dunbar & Bunce Master Thatchers.
The 130m² roof has a tiled ridge which is often seen on many thatched roofs in Holland.
Prior to the thatching the roof timbers had TAS100 calcium silicate thatch fireboards fitted and 50mm Thatchbatts® installed between the rafters.
The second property is expected to start early in the New Year.
