Elm Flooring

We and the designer had to work quite hard to persuade the board of directors to fit this gorgeous English Elm floor into the refurbishment of their listed 16th century pub restaurant 'The White Hart' at Wytham near Oxford ( I'm told the food is very good and the chef is making a name for himself. White Hart, Wytham, OX2 8QA. tel. 01865 244372 ). They now think it is absolutely wonderful and the very best thing since sliced bread - which it is! This photo is of the room in its unfinished state. It is not apparent from this photo, but we have fitted the boards so that most cross the room from skirting to skirting in a single length. We have also matched boards where practical so that their grain patterns compliment one another in the same way that matched veneers are laid up in fine furniture
