Blacksmith’s Cottages
Nestled in the heart of the Lincolnshire Wold village of Waltham, Blacksmith’s Cottages were built on the land of the Old Blacksmith’s Forge.

This small 4 unit development is opposite the village’s cenotaph and adjacent to the conservation area, so a sympathetic scheme on this corner plot was requested by the planners.
We decided to build the 4 cottages segmentally around the boundary of the plot, so as to give a more natural and attractive street scheme.
The finished homes won great praise from local residents and the Parish Council when completed. North East Lincolnshire Council thought they where of such high calibre, that they actually moved the village conservation area boundary to encompass the new Blacksmith’s Cottages.
The small development won both LABC & FMB awards for the quality of the build. -
William Mews
This 8 unit development was built on the Old Brigge's farm yard adjacent to the existing farm house.

The design and build was not easy but the finished homes gained great praise locally and also won LABC & FMB awards. -
Camargue Avenue
The Brownfield development land on the site of the old village bakery and Lincolnshire Highways yard, has been Carr & Carr’s most popular development in the village of Waltham.

This award winning development is a mixture of 2-3 bedroom bungalows with a small proportion of 4 bedroom detached houses.
The design of this site, and the homes on it, was quite revolutionary at the time. All the homes were built around the sun with most also having large entrance lobbies to restrict the loss of heat when the entrance doors where open. These are still some of the most energy efficient homes we have built.
The naming of the roads was a nod to the company and also the village’s history. The Camargue was the flagship model for Rolls Royce cars and this development was the flagshipsite for Carr & Carr, so it was felt a suitable name to use. The remaining streets where named after past vicars of Waltham All Saints Church – Kemeshame, Geipel, Nunnerley, Shears & Markham.
