Recent Work
Sussex Beach House, West Sussex
Winner of the Sussex Heritage Design Award, Sussex Beach House is a striking contemporary coastal home that combines innovative architecture with exceptional craftsmanship and sustainable design.
Designed by architect Simon Gill and constructed by WSCB, the six-bedroom seafront property replaces a derelict bungalow, transforming the site into a refined and resilient modern beach house that responds sensitively to its coastal surroundings.
Berry Stonework was commissioned to deliver specialist flint masonry throughout the project, creating a flint-clad base that anchors the building within the local landscape and reflects the traditional materials of the Sussex coastline. The flintwork features fully hand-knapped chalk flint, carefully laid to achieve a crisp and consistent finish, alongside precisely detailed hand-knapped flint quoins that frame and define the elevations.
A decorative galleted flint section was also incorporated into the design, introducing texture and craftsmanship while celebrating traditional masonry techniques within a contemporary architectural setting.
The project demonstrates how traditional flint walling and modern architecture can work together to create a building that is both visually striking and deeply connected to its environment.
Berry Stonework is also proud that the craftsmanship delivered on the project was recognised with the Sussex Heritage Craft Award, awarded to Callum Jackson and Sam Davidson for their outstanding flint masonry work.
Flint Work Styles
We create a variety of traditional and contemporary flint walling styles, including knapped flint, coursed flint and decorative flint panels. Each project is carefully crafted to complement both historic buildings and modern architecture.
Berry Stonework was founded by Duncan Berry, a specialist flint mason with decades of experience working across the UK and internationally.
Our work combines traditional masonry skills with modern building knowledge, delivering projects that respect historic architecture while meeting contemporary standards.
From heritage building restoration to contemporary flint architecture, every project reflects our commitment to craftsmanship.
