Welcome to our
website
Woodcott is a very small business close to Bath, UK
but we hand-carve in oak and custom design many
signs, so we need a lot of photos to show the many
possibilities (click here to see four pages
of examples : House signs
and wooden signs ). Being in durable
oak our wooden signs have that special look - and
with exposure over time to the weather they actually get
more character without rotting - see Lower Shockerwick
sign or School Cottage sign for examples. If you
want a smarter look a varnished finish is an
alternative. We started woodworking in 1979 so we have
plenty of experience and hope that, although we are not a
big business, in our case 'small is beautiful'. We like
doing personalised signs to suit the customer's
taste and can copy logos, photographs etc or design
something to suit - all made out of attractive oak,
the best timber there is for house signs. Our work
has lettering hand-carved in the traditional
manner but the font is not always traditional and
often has colour added to improve clarity. We make many
wooden house signs and other wooden signs without a
motif and then the choice is between capitals or lower
case lettering in our usual style - based on Roman Trajan, or
any other font style you may require. Most house signs
are in the range £60 - £120. We also make village signs, farm
signs and stable signs, shop signs, school signs and
memorial plaques. Whatever your signage requirements
please phone us to discuss the design or maybe email and we
can give you an immediate quotation. Being bespoke and
carved by hand, please remember -
anything is possible! |

Did you
know?..............
The oak
is the largest and longest lived of our native species
generally living to several hundred years of age unless
felled (usually for timber) which is not often done
before maturity at about 150 years. Before the
introduction of continental species the oak was, in most
areas of Britain, the dominant species of our native
woodland and often still caused not by any aggressive
tendencies but as a function of its longevity. The oak
affords a habitat for as many as 500 species of insects
in its foliage and bark but has such powers of
recouperation that the tree and for us the important
bit the timber does not suffer.
