In 2003 Meredith Bowles completed a timber frame home for his family and an office for his architect’s practice in the Fens village of Prickwillow near Ely in Cambridgeshire. The windows on the west side provide a view to Ely Cathedral and the black painted fibre cement corrugated cladding lends the building a barn-like quality.
