Nestled within the natural beauty of Yeo Valley, there are many historically significant grade II listed buildings in the small village of Trent.
One of these prestigious properties is Trent Young’s CE School. Originally constructed in 1862 by the reverend and his wife, the school was initially for educating girls and infants. Over time, new buildings were added to accommodate boys into the school.
Unfortunately, the original windows were beginning to deteriorate. Clement Windows were trusted with recreating the classic appearance with modern benefits. Present-day manufacturing provided the client with improved heat retention, enhanced security and long-lasting durability compared to their older windows.
Trent Young’s CE school is such a recognisable building. Crucially, the choice of hardware not only enhanced the functionality of the windows, but blended seamlessly with the undoubtable character present.
The curved classic (B158K09F) is a timeless handle that is commonly fitted on heritage projects. To match the handles, our curved classic (B375200) peg stay was chosen as an additional security measure and to set the window into various open positions. Satin Chrome was selected as the finish to match the traditional Tudor grill diamond pattern
