Letheringsett's riverside cottages and flint farmhouses carry chimneys that suffer from the valley damp as much as the wind — we rebuild failing stacks to a standard that lasts.
Letheringsett is a small village on the River Glaven just west of Holt, best known for its watermill and its attractive mix of flint cottages and Georgian brick farmhouses. The valley setting means properties sit in a natural frost hollow, and chimney stacks here tend to deteriorate from the top down — mortar erodes, brickwork cracks through freeze-thaw, and displaced flaunching leaves pots unstable. We'd estimate that around a quarter of the older stacks we inspect in valley villages like this need a partial or full rebuild.
Our team is based in Wells-next-the-Sea, roughly twenty minutes from Letheringsett, and we're regularly working in Holt and the surrounding villages. We carry out chimney rebuilds using hydraulic lime mortars on flint properties and standard NHL mortar on brick, ensuring the rebuild matches both the original construction and the local planning character.
