Flimwell Park<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Flimwell Park is an ambitious mixed-use centre and timber showcase which opened in 2022 and introduced a second major timber hub to the small village of Flimwell, after the pioneering Woodland Enterprise Centre. The extensive privately led development consists of eight ‘artisan workshops’, a gallery\/caf\u00e9 restaurant, student chalets for education and training, three private homes and a ‘focal building,’ combining events space, workshop and other facilities.<\/p>\n

The project uses a mix of locally and regionally sourced timber – including Douglas fir and larch sourced from Southern England – and imported Estonian glulam timber and SIP cassette panels.<\/p>\n
