We recommend that you visit our showroom in the historic town of Salisbury. We have been based here since 1834 and our building still reflects the wonderful designs of that period.

Images of the Showroom
	Staircase The main staircase leads up to our First Floor Showrooms. When we purchased the building in 1974, the previous owners had removed any stairs and were only using the Ground Floor! Access to upstairs was through a window by ladder, and the results of 50 years neglect were not pretty!
	Original Ceiling Beams These unusual beams in our 1st Floor showroom were originally the main feature of the "Hall" built as part of the original house. Three storeys high, the Hall was both impressive and practical, the height giving space for the smoke from the open fire to rise and escape through a smoke hole in the wall which still exists.
	Wattle & Daub This part of our premises was built in the early 1300´s and we are fortunate that a section of the original walling has survived for almost 700 years. Wattle - hazel twigs intertwined with the building's timber frame, was covered with daub - a mixture of apparently any usable material like mud, chalk, straw, feathers etc, and acted as a surprisingly effective insulator, but was of course susceptible to wet weather, and was eventually replaced by bricks.
