A range of British made traditional ironmongery - Watercourt
products are handmade using traditional blacksmith techniques
in the beautiful and rural setting of the North Yorkshire Moors.
Established in 2005, Watercourt recognises that there is a need
for an affordable, quality alternative in the traditional ironmongery
market which has been flooded with mass- produced, inferior imported
products. This has created a great lack of choice for the discerning
developer or home renovator, looking for single items or to furnish
a whole property.
We believe we can offer excellent quality door and window furniture
and bespoke ironwork at truly competitive prices.
We offer a standard range of ironmongery in addition to our bespoke
custom-made items where our non-use of modern manufacturing techniques
such as laser cutting offers us the flexibility to give customers
exactly what they want at a competitive price

| Fixtures and fittings
are vitally important in enabling an old property to retain its
character. Early vernacular fittings in particular have a unique
charm and interest that is the product of their manufacture,
their style and ornamentation, and their age. Their removal or
replacement by inappropriate reproductions gives an immediate
modern or fake feel to a house, even if its walls and roof are
hundreds of years old. Read more of the article by Linda
