TAIL MILL
HOUSING MASTERPLAN
MERRIOTT, SOMERSET

This masterplan encompasses a historic listed mill complex just outside the Somerset village of Merriott.  It has been devised to provide accommodation around a series of courts, some including the existing listed buildings and one as an entirely new development.  45 houses are created of which 22 will be new-build and the remainder located within the converted mill buildings.  Sizes range from two to four bedroom homes.

​

Our traditional houses in this rural setting draw inspiration from both the local vernacular and the industrial buildings of the mill complex. They are mostly formed using local honey-coloured Ham stone, with timber cladding used where appropriate.  The roofs are typically covered in natural slate.
