Dodford Manor
Client : Private Client | Location : Dodford, Northamptonshire
A sensitive conversion of the existing 17th century agricultural buildings and new-build timber-framed banqueting barn in the grounds of an 18th century Georgian farmhouse has helped create a high-quality wedding and hospitality venue adjacent to the Grade I Listed St. Marys church. This charming group of former agricultural buildings had lain unused and un-economic for 20 years, until an energetic and discerning client purchased the former Manor house and farmstead in December 2009. Through careful considered conservation and design, the buildings have been creatively re-used and revitalised as a sustainable rural enterprise thus securing their long term conservation for future generations.
