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 Roof Tiles
Conservation roof tiles for strength and durability
The aesthetic appeal and unique appearance of handmade conservation roof tiles are unmatched. Each tile in our conservation roof tiles range has its own character, with very slight variations that add to its charm and authenticity. The naturally earthy colours and natural variations in tone create a visually appealing and a very organic looking roof that adds character to any building. Homeowners and architects have appreciated the individuality and artistic end result that is achieved by handcrafted conservation roof tiles for many years.
What makes our conservation roof tiles so durable?
The traditional firing process used in crafting our conservation roof tiles results in a very dense and strong end product that lasts for many years. This enhanced strength allows them to withstand the United Kingdom's harsh weather elements, such as heavy rain, extreme temperatures, and high winds, without losing any of their aesthetic appeal.
Our conservation roof tiles give you a roof like no other
Handmade conservation roof tiles have distinct advantages in craftsmanship, quality, aesthetics, and durability over machine made roof tiles. While machine made tiles provide efficiency and uniformity, the artistry and unique characteristics of handcrafted conservation roof tiles make them a far superior choice for those who want a bespoke and long lasting roof for their property.
We adhere to tradition with our conservation roof tiles
Traditional craftsmanship is a key aspect that sets handmade conservation roof tiles apart from the rest. Skilled craftsmen meticulously shape each tile by hand, paying attention to even the smallest of details. This handmade crafting of a natural product results in roof tiles with very subtle variations, giving roofs a rich texture and depth that machines cannot replicate. The level of dedication and precision put into crafting each one of our conservation roof tiles ensures a higher level of quality and craftsmanship.
Our conservation roof tiles are better for the environment
Our handmade conservation roof tiles also have a distinct environmental advantage. The use of natural clay materials will keep our carbon footprint associated with the production process to a minimum. Our conservation roof tiles are free from harmful chemicals and pollutants, making them eco-friendly compared to machine-made alternatives that often involve synthetic materials, colourings and energy intensive manufacturing techniques.
So, hand-made conservation roof tiles offer superior craftsmanship, a unique look and feel, unparalleled durability, and environmental benefits over machine made roof tiles. Their individuality, visual appeal, and long-lasting quality make them a superb choice for those who value authenticity, beauty, and sustainability in their lives. With handcrafted conservation roof tiles, you can enjoy a roof that is a testament to the timeless skill and practicality of traditional construction methods.

A little information about Oxfordshire
Banbury in Oxfordshire
Banbury is a historic market town in Oxfordshire. Banbury is a significant commercial and retail centre for the surrounding area of north Oxfordshire and southern parts of Warwickshire and Northamptonshire which are predominantly rural. The Oxfordshire town is home to the world's largest coffee-processing facility, built in 1964. The Oxfordshire town is famed for Banbury cakes, a spiced sweet pastry dish.
History of Banbury in Oxfordshire
The name Banbury may derive from 'Banna', a Saxon chieftain said to have built a stockade in the Oxfordshire town in the 6th century. The name appears as Banesberie in the Domesday Book. Another known spelling for the Oxfordshire town was Banesebury in Medieval times.
History of Banbury in Oxfordshire
During excavations for the construction of an office building in Hennef Way in 2002, the remains of a British Iron Age settlement with circular buildings dating back to 200 BC were found. The site contained many pieces of pottery and stone. Later there was a Roman villa at nearby Wykham Park, providing proof that the Romans settled in this part of Oxfordshire.
The Oxfordshire area was settled by the Saxons around the late 5th century. In about 556 Banbury was the scene of a battle between the local Anglo-Saxons of Cynric and Ceawlin, and the local Romano-British. It was a local centre for Anglo-Saxon settlement by the mid-6th century. Banbury developed in the Anglo-Saxon period under Danish influence, starting in the late 6th century.
The Saxons built the Oxfordshire town on the west bank of the River Cherwell. On the opposite bank they built Grimsbury, which was formerly part of Northamptonshire. Another district, Neithrop, is one of the oldest areas in Banbury, having first been recorded as a hamlet in the 13th century. Both Grimsbury and Neithrop were formally incorporated into the borough of Banbury in 1889.
Banbury Castle was built from 1135 by Alexander, Bishop of Lincoln, and survived into the Civil War, when it was besieged. Due to its proximity to Oxfordshire's county town of Oxford, Banbury was at one stage a Royalist town, but the inhabitants were known to be strongly Puritan. The castle was demolished after the war.
Civil war comes to Oxfordshire
Banbury played a vital role in the English Civil War and acted as a base of operations for Oliver Cromwell, who is reputed to have planned the Battle of Edge Hill in the back room of a local Oxfordshire inn, the Reindeer Inn. The town was pro-Parliamentarian, but the castle was manned by a Royalist garrison who supported King Charles I. In 1645 during the Civil War, Parliamentary troops were billeted in nearby Hanwell for nine weeks and villagers petitioned the Warwickshire Committee of Accounts to pay for feeding them.
