Roofs in Westbury Park
Victorian and Edwardian streets
Westbury Park is mainly Victorian and early twentieth-century, with a few Georgian buildings: older than much of Henleaze, with roofs to match.
Next to the Downs
The suburb sits east of Durdham Down. Houses facing open ground get more of the wind than those tucked into the middle of a street.
Outside the Redland boundary
Westbury Park lies outside the Cotham & Redland Conservation Area, whose appraisal records slate and clay roofs with brick stacks and clay pots on its side of the line.
Roofing in Westbury Park
Westbury Park is the strip of streets between Henleaze and Redland, running up to the eastern edge of Durdham Down. Its houses are mostly a generation older than the interwar heart of Henleaze, which usually means taller roofs, more chimneys and more original detail at the eaves and verges.
On roofs of this age the covering is often sound while the fixings have given up, so tiles and slates slip one at a time. Chimney stacks have often been repointed and re-flashed several times over, and the lead around them tells you how well. We check the stacks, valleys and flashings as well as the slope, and we quote for what we find.
We work across Westbury Park, Henleaze, Redland and the surrounding areas.
