Victorian Roof Tiles
We all want a superior product for our homes.

Therefore it makes good sense to ensure you have the finest roof tiles to not only protect your property from the elements, but also to improve the look and increase the value. Heritage Clay Tiles Ltd have a classic range that incorporates the Classic Victorian roof tile.
The Victorian roof tile from the classic range
The Victorian period saw a huge revival in tilework, largely as part of the Gothic Revival, but also the Arts and Crafts Movement. Patterned tiles, or tiles making up patterns, were now being mass produced by machine and were cheap to produce. It seemed that the success of the Victorian roof tile was to venture into the kitchen, bathroom and beyond. Although the tiles used on the interior of properties were different to the ones used on roofs, it demonstrated just how durable and popular tiles had become.
Since the Victorian period tiles have remained the standard for kitchens and bathrooms, and many types of public areas. Even the stations of the London Underground make good use of glazed tiles.
At Heritage Clay Tiles Ltd, we are proud of our classic Victorian roof tile. Builders, property developers and home owners alike are eager to secure this premium roof tile for their properties.
The beautifully understated colour and delightful texture of our Victorian roof tile is superb and will make any property stand out from the crowd. The texture of our Victorian roof tile actively encourages the natural build up of lichen that actually enhances the aesthetic appeal of these traditional roof tiles, making your property take on a gorgeous weathered appearance quicker, thus detracting from that clinically new appearance.

A little information about East Sussex
Hastings old town: East Sussex history comes to life
Hastings Old Town is an area in Hastings in East Sussex, which is more or less what the town was like prior to the nineteenth century. It lies mainly within the easternmost valley of the current town. The shingle beach known as The Stade, which is in fact the old Saxon term meaning landing place, is home to the biggest beach launched fishing fleet in Britain.
Many events take place every year in the old town, including Jack In The Green and the Bonfire Procession. Many of these events are centred on Winkle Island, which is also the gathering place of the Winkle Club.
East Sussex fishing history
This old East Sussex town has curious net shops dotted around. They are tall black wooden sheds that were built to provide a weather proof store for the fishing gear made from natural materials to prevent them from rotting in wet weather. The sheds were originally built on posts to allow the sea to go underneath, however, more shingle has built up and the sea no longer reaches the huts. The beach area on which the sheds stand built up after groynes were erected in 1834, however, the limited space meant the sheds had to grow upwards, even though some sheds do have cellars.
The East Sussex old town net shops consist of approximately fifty black wooden sheds standing in neat rows on a shingle beach are unique. Today, the materials manufactured for fishing are artificial and can be left in the open. Most net shops stand on a piece of beach that appeared suddenly after the first of the towns groynes were erected in 1834. The new beach area was small and close to the sea, so each shop could only have about eight or nine feet square to build on. But all boats had more nets than could be stored in such limited space, so the sheds had to grow upwards. Some have cellars. Many originally stood on posts to let the sea go underneath. Fishermen keep spare fishing gear in the shops. One is now a museum.
So if the history of the fishing industry is your thing, or you just like a stroll along a shingle beach, this historic part of the East Sussex coastline is well worth a visit.
