Arched brace jointed cruck in the Lickey Hills

A successful day's crane raising saw this 'arched brace jointed cruck' installed near the Lickey Hills.

The green oak timber frame, made in our workshop near Exeter in Devon, will form a first floor vaulted roof space in this two-storey extension.
The unique aspect of this construction is the 117.5 degree turn in plan that creates a stunning arched brace Hip Valley truss.
