Restoration Home

Calverton Manor is a collage of different architectural styles with parts thought to date back as far as the 14th century. And it comes with its very own legend involving a rich widow, the local butcher, pots of gold and murder. As the building’s architectural and historical secrets begin to emerge – including high treason and arranged marriages – owners, David and Jeanette, are faced with a renovation that is causing problems. A main beam holding up the house has been destroyed by woodworm – it’s a miracle the house hasn’t collapsed. Whilst the building’s past secrets are a constant fascination for the history loving owners, the restoration process is proving to be much more testing than anyone predicted.
