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.”
