Lower (Great) Cliston is a significant Grade II* listed Devon farmstead with origins dating back to the 16th century. Each century since, the original high-status open Hall House has been developed and extended to create the imposing thatched farmhouse and outbuildings, alongside a modern farmstead.
This long term multi phased project, started with a Feasibility Study to try and understand how to make better use of the house, outbuildings and gardens to suit the new owners varied ambitions, and give budget costs to understand how the work could be best phased.
Old Came Rectory, situated just outside Dorchester, is an historic gem largely due to renowned local and international writers and poets who owned and visited the house.
This incredible building is one of only 11 grade 1 listed public houses in the UK. Dating back to the 1200’s and reputedly built by the Whittington family, whom Richard Whittington (famous merchant and former Lord Mayor of London) was a part of.
Our clients asked us to re-order their house to make the most of the stunning panoramic views and create an open plan layout that worked for their growing family.
