In 1997 a decision was taken to extend the Store.  This was a complicated task as the work was to be carried out whilst the Store continued to trade.

The architecture of the roof was dramatic and highly unusual containing a series of steep dormer features along the perimeter and three tall spires, all tiled in Rosemary blue brindle tiles.  It was discovered that these were no longer manufactured.

Tiles:                      65,000 Blue Brindle

Roof Components: 1000    Special spire hips
                                500    Special Handed dormer hips

All the materials supplied provided a truly remarkable match to the original roof.
