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 to the left for example. 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 £35 - £100. 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.
