Not an Average Oven

Most people come here thinking of building an oven out of brick or refractory cement. So did we when we built our first oven 10 or 15 years ago.

After several iterations we realised how much easier it was to build an oven out of cob instead. We decided to try and use the ovens, to reintroduce clay as a building product of the future.

Our aim is to supply you with all the plans, knowledge, confidence and materials to build an oven out of clay that truly out performs any other oven.
