The Rustic Log Store Company

The Rustic Log Store Company Welcome to “The Rustic Log Store Co"... a small family
run business in the heart Peak District Or a shelf? Larger? Smaller? Or even a seat? The answer is YES!

I first got my inspiration from the medieval Cruck* barns that are local to the Yorkshire and Derbyshire area, when a friend asked me to build a log store that was both attractive and practical the idea was born. Following a few false starts getting the wood to bend to shape I hit on the method I use now which is laminating strips of wet timber clamped into a former until secured into shape. After

my friend’s prototype was completed I was very busy with requests from people who had seen his log store and wanted one for themselves. Along with this came personal specifications, could I build one with a door? Because each log store is individually crafted changes can be made to the specification quite easily unlike off the shelf items from large DIY outlets.

*The term crook or cruck comes from Middle English crok(e), from Old Norse krāka, meaning "hook". This is also the origin of the word "crooked", meaning bent, twisted or deformed
