ROUNDWOOD TIMBER FRAME PROJECTS.

At Tŷ Pren we’ve worked on dozens and dozens of exciting projects over the years- One Planet Developments, Cabins, Roundhouses and Mandans, Compost Loos, large self builds, community projects, and commercial properties. If it can be built out of wood we’ll build it. We even reconstructed an Iron Age roundhouse once. Sit back and enjoy an insight into Tŷ Pren Roundwood Timber Frame projects.
