Landmark Trust Restoration Project

This was a project funded by the National Lottery to restore the Queen Anne's Summer House in the Shuttleworth Old Estate, Old Warden, Bedfordshire.  I designed the corbels and carved one while my colleague carved the other.  They are carved in Quebec yellow pine and painted white.

Stone Grotesques for St.George's chapel at Windsor

There is a huge project to replace the deteriorating Victorian grotesques on the three string courses around the facade of St. George's chapel with new interpretations by contemporary stone sculptors.  Two of my designs were chosen.  One is already installed and the other in the process of being installed now.

Tompion's Mostyn Clock (c.1690)

The original (photo far right) was made by Thomas Tompion, thought to have been commissioned for the coronation of King William III and Queen Mary.

Here, I have modeled details in wax from photos for a custom made near replica. Models were cast in silver and then chased by a silversmith.
