Bat Tiles:
Provide help for our bats with our range of bat friendly roof tiles.
Did you know that all UK bats and their roosts are protected by law? The Wildlife and Countryside Act introduced in 1981, gave legal protection to all bat species and their roosts in England.
Distinct species of bats prefer differing places to roost. The two most usually found species of bat in the UK are the Pipistrelle and Brown Long-Eared Bat. Pipistrelle prefer confined spaces such as under tiles on roofs and hanging spaces. The Brown Long-Eared Bat prefer roof timbers and ridges inside lofts. Heritage Clay Tiles can provide purpose made access points within your roof tiles or ridge tiles. The Bat Tile Set can form part of a mitigation package required by law for existing roosts or as potential access where a roost had not previously been present.

Conservation Peg Tiles
Why clay is best for conservation peg tiles?
Clay as a material is considered the best choice for roofing tiles for several reasons.
Durability is a key component of all the roof tiles we manufacture and supply. Clay tiles are incredibly durable, with a hardness rating that makes them resistant to wear and tear. They can withstand some pretty extreme weather too, making them a long-lasting investment for your home or business.
The clay with which we make our conservation peg tiles are made from natural materials, sourced locally and free from unpleasant chemicals and toxins, making them an environmentally sensible choice for your building project. They are also incredibly resistant to mould and mildew growth, which is ideal for areas prone to high humidity. A lot has been said lately about mould and mildew in and around the home and the serious and negative impact they can have on a person's health. As a result, clay peg tiles are not only an environmentally sensible choice, but they are also the healthy choice too.
Clay conservation peg tiles are exceptionally low maintenance
Unlike some other building materials, clay tiles require no extra sealing and are simple to clean and maintain. They are also resistant to stains and scratches, making them extremely easy to care for.
Clay tiles have a high thermal mass, meaning they provide a more comfortable indoor climate all year round. They are also a very stable product, meaning they do not deform over time, shrink when subjected to elevated temperatures, and do not swell when wet, they are not even prone to crack when subjected to stress.
Our conservation peg tiles can last for many decades with minimal maintenance, making them a very cost-effective long-term investment. They are also resistant to fading, ensuring their colour remains intact for many years to come.
So, as you can see, this makes our conservation peg tiles a superb choice for anyone looking for an elegant and sophisticated finish to their property.
A little information about Oxfordshire
Didcot in Oxfordshire
Didcot is a quaint little town in the ceremonial county of Oxfordshire and the historic county of Berkshire. The Oxfordshire town is noted for its railway heritage, Didcot station opening as a junction station on the Great Western Main Line in 1844. Today the town is known for the railway museum and power stations, and is the gateway town to the Science Vale, which houses three large science and technology centres in the surrounding villages of Milton, Culham and Harwell.
Ancient and Medieval eras of Didcot, Oxfordshire
The area around present-day Didcot has been inhabited for at least 9,000 years. A large archaeological dig between 2010 and 2013 produced finds from the Mesolithic, Neolithic, Iron Age and Bronze Age. In the Roman era the inhabitants of this Oxfordshire area tried to drain the marshland by digging ditches through what is now the Ladygrove area north of the town near Long Wittenham, evidence of which was found during surveying in 1994. A hoard of gold Roman coins dating from about 160 was found just outside the village in 1995 by an enthusiast with a metal detector. It is now displayed at the Ashmolean Museum on loan from the British Museum.
The Domesday Book of 1086 does not record the Oxfordshire town of Didcot. In 13th-century records the Oxfordshire location as Dudecota, Dudecote, Doudecote, Dudcote or Dudecothe. Some of these spellings continued into later centuries, and were joined by Dodecote from the 14th century onward, Dudcott from the 16th century onward and Didcott from the 17th century onward. Like many location names, it is derived from Old English, meaning the house or shelter of Dudda's people. The name is believed to be derived from that of Dida, a 7th-century Mercian sub-king who ruled the area in Oxfordshire and was the father of Saint Frithuswith or Frideswide, now the patron saint of both Oxford and Oxford University.
Didcot was then a rural Berkshire village, and it remained so for centuries, only occasionally appearing in records, before transferring to the county of Oxfordshire. If Didcot existed at the time of the Domesday Book in 1086, it will have been much smaller than several surrounding villages, including Harwell and Long Wittenham that modern Didcot now dwarfs. The nearest settlement recorded in the Domesday Book was Wibalditone, with a mere twenty one inhabitants and a church, whose name possibly survives in Willington's Farm on the edge of Didcot's present-day Ladygrove Estate. The oldest parts of the Church of England parish church of All Saints go back to the 12th century. They include the walls of the nave and east wall of the chancel, which were built in about 1160. The Oxfordshire church is a Grade II listed building.
