Apprentice Pieces
I am a letter carver in stone and wood, I work in my small home studio in Thorpe Hamlet, Norwich. I studied to design and carve letters through the Lettering Arts Trust two year apprenticeship. During that time I also trained to design and carve sundials. Please see examples of my most recent work, or have a look at my Apprentice Pieces.

St. Peters Corpusty
Broughton Moor Green Slate plaque, 450 x 445 x 40mm, fixed in the chancle floor, 2025
This piece came about through the collaboration of the Lettering Arts Trust (LAT), the Norfolk Churches Trust (NCT) and the Friends of Friendless Churches. St. Peter’s Corpusty is home to one of the LAT’s Art and Memory Collections, 17 modern headstones surrounding the church and four smaller works inside. The plaque was commissioned to commemorate the full reopening of the building and church yard to the public since work began to save the church in 1969. For more information on the history of St. Peter’s Corpusty the guide book Do the Stones Speak? can be purchased in the church, when it is open for occasional services.
St Peter’s provides an engaging setting for contemporary lettering, set on its’ own atop a hill just outside the village of Saxthorpe. The plaque in Broughton Moor green slate, compliments the recently installed orange tiles of the chancel. The only surviving floor plaque, up beyond the two chancel steps, is from 1650 and memorialises Edmund Pooley, son of Sir Edmund Pooley, of B[r]adley in Suffolk and Dame Esther, who died at the age on eleven months and eight days.
The size of this piece was chosen to fit into the dimensions of the floor tiles, to be informative and not dominate the space. The letterforms are lowercase and influenced by late 17th and 18th century lettering that can be seen in churches around Norfolk. Characterised in this instance by letterforms that are particularly fluid and slightly compressed to fit the space.
In June 2025 the stone was blessed as part of the Eucharist service.
