Our Story

Will Hannam is the founder of Woodlanders. He is an experienced carpenter & woodsman with a passion for utilising sustainable timber and locally sourced materials.

With a strong background in woodland management, timber framing, furniture making & traditional carpentry. Will trained and worked with Woodsman Ben Law (Grand Designs - The Woodland House) and some of the builds featured were built in partnership with Ben.

For over a decade Woodlanders aim is to use materials from local trusted sources and long standing traditional skills in a sustainable and environmentally sensitive way. We create high quality spaces that nestle into their surrounding seamlessly. Whether a small functional shed or a more expansive cabin our approach & standards always remain the same.

Our belief is that woodlands need to be managed in a way that is ecologically sustainable for the future. As part of that custodianship we provide courses to share our knowledge & skills.

Sustainability and low environmental impact does not have to mean a compromise on quality.
