Traditional Craftsmanship in Northampton

Northampton's Victorian and Edwardian terraces in Abington, Kingsthorpe, and St James grew directly from the town's shoe and leather industry boom of the late nineteenth century — substantial, well-built housing for a prosperous manufacturing town. Old English Doors designs and builds bespoke timber doors, windows, stained glass, gates, and porches for these properties, made in our own workshop and installed across Northampton.

Our Bespoke Services in Northampton

Abington's good-quality Victorian and Edwardian family terraces, Kingsthorpe's conservation area housing, and the period streets of St James and Far Cotton all date from Northampton's rapid expansion as a centre of the shoe industry. We design every project from the property's genuine period and the specific conservation requirements of its area.

Wooden Doors in Northampton

Abington's substantial Victorian and Edwardian terraces were constructed with front doors designed as part of their architecture. We make Victorian doors, Edwardian doors, 1930s doors, traditional doors, and heritage doors matched to each property's era — correct panel proportions and period mouldings appropriate to Northampton's Victorian and Edwardian housing boom.

Heritage Doors in Northampton

Kingsthorpe and the Abington Park conservation area protect some of Northampton's finest surviving period streets. Our heritage door work is designed from genuine documented evidence and built to satisfy conservation officer requirements and listed building consent applications.

Wooden Windows in Northampton

The sash windows and casement windows of Abington, Kingsthorpe, and St James's Victorian and Edwardian terraces are central to how these streets read today. Our heritage windows serve Northampton's conservation area properties to the required statutory standard.

Stained Glass in Northampton

Original stained and leaded glass survives across Northampton's Victorian and Edwardian terraces, particularly in Abington and St James. We hand-craft stained glass doors and stained glass windows using traditional leading techniques, reproducing lost originals or designing new work appropriate to the property's period.

Wooden Gates in Northampton

The boundary treatment of a Northampton period terrace is part of its street presence. We build garden gates and driveway gates designed to the specific scale and character of the property.

Wooden Porches in Northampton

Many of Northampton's Victorian and Edwardian terraces in Abington and Kingsthorpe were originally built with entrance porches. We design and build Victorian porches, heritage porches, and traditional porches that restore this feature where it has been lost.
