Housing stock — Central MK11 has Welsh slate on the Georgian frontages and handmade clay tile on the older cottages; suburban infill carries 1980s-90s concrete tile.
Local roofing challenge — Stony Stratford's High Street is a conservation area governed by Milton Keynes City Council — MK's conservation officer is stricter than Bucks Council next door on chimney-pot reinstatement, and we specify original-profile pots on every rebuild.
On the ground — MK11 Georgian coaching-inn properties along the High Street have concealed lead-lined parapet gutters — we re-lay in code 7 lead with proper drips and rolls, which is the only spec that survives conservation officer inspection.
Microclimate — Stony Stratford sits in the Ouse valley — ground humidity is higher than the MK grid estates on the plateau above, so moss and algae on north-facing slate re-establish faster.
Site access — The High Street's Georgian bay windows overhang the pavement — scaffold clearance needs careful setting-out and we survey pavement widths before quoting.
