The main roof was removed completely, a new ridge height was specified to gain as much head height as possible. The new roof structure was constructed with new hand cut timbers. A new doormer window was created on the front elevation and five conservation Velux windows were installed on the rear elevation. The new roof is covered with hand made clay pantiles. The front extension stretches across the entire width of the property. The porch is a bespoke piece of joinery constructed locally to Bury St Edmunds and made from Oak.
