Does anyone deal with oak framed houses / extensions etc?
Discussion
We've run out of stone for renovating our house and there is no more available, The only thing I can think that will pass planning permission (grade 2) is an oak framed structure with floor to ceiling glass. We are looking to finish our second living room in this fashion.
I'd really like some idea of pricing on a structure if anyone can assist?

Yes understand all the consent etc, we had to tell the conservation officer when we wanted to change the colour of our front door lol.
It will be 3m x 3m single storey pitch roof pantiled single width door leading out onto a path. Slabs all down I have all cast iron guttering, roof tiles, flagstones etc I just need the oak frame with door and glass.

Houses in the area were built from a soft limestone which decayed faster than people thought, the guy who built our house >200yr ago used a much superior hard limestone and as such our house is the only one of its type left standing.
The house is also quite original as it was not subject to extensions in the Victorian period etc.
When the house needed a little modernisation such as a bathroom and a living room, permission was granted as long as the stone was the same, exactly the same and from the same quarry the original stone came from - permission was granted to take stone from the original area and also by recycling one of the animal shelters. The stone is no longer available from said location.
You possibly could get it from somewhere but i do like the fact that the house was built from the local quarry and you cannot tell where any repairs are, I have a few stones left for future repair works but that's it.
