Heritage features like these are a great way of adding character to a property through natural decor. However, some homes may need the brickwork or beams restoring first, which can sometimes be costly.
Moreover, these features can frame the room. Structural beams can enhance the appearance of windows, support the ceiling and retain the silhouette of the room.
