Orangeries

An orangery usually combines masonry with timber and glass and is typically classical in style. The earliest, built in the 17th century, were for conserving orange trees and other tender plants through the winter and for entertaining in the summer.

Whether you prefer a style with columns, capitals and cornices, or with simple clean lines free of classical references, an orangery is an attractive and practical option.

To succeed, orangeries need careful design, thoroughly scaled to the main house. M&L plan the project in an integrated way, ensuring it fits perfectly with its setting. We design, organize and construct them with the help of a local stonemason or bricklayer.
