Early in the days of our research for Reclamation Stone, as we scoured the architectual salvage yards for inspiration, it became clear that the sources of original treasures had all but dried up. The few items that did become available from time to time bore exhorbitant price tags.

So was born the idea to design and manufacture a collection of compatible components from which Folly designers can pick and choose to create their own individual monument. The Gothic design is softer and more sympathetic in an English country garden than classical grandure and the rustic finish of Reclamation Stone, which conveys instant maturity, combines readily with timber, brick and informal plant material. Much of the inspiration for the Gothic Folly is drawn from ecclesiastical architecture and hardly surprisingly from Wells Cathedral, just down the road from the Stoneworks.

The Gothic Arch Features Windows

The design of the tracery window is based on the shape of the famous scissor arch in the heart of Wells Cathedral which was installed to bear the weight of an over ambitious tower. However, careful thought has been given to the size and scale of the components to ensure they work with modern building practices.

Within this section you will find material suitable for the grandest of designs or smallest of features - something suitable for every garden, large or small.

Although the various components are all standard there are infinite variations in the way they can be incorporated in a Folly design, the only ingredient you need to add is your own imagination.

If there is a special piece you require that is not in these pages do contact us as we are happy to produce one-offs and are always looking to expand the collection.
