Traditional Greenhouses
CLASSIC PAINTED TIMBER GREENHOUSES MAKE A FINE GARDEN FEATURE,
PRACTICAL TO USE AND EASY TO MAINTAIN
For 30 years Marston & Langinger have been creating glass buildings with
the highest standards of design and craftsmanship. Our timber greenhouses
combine the charm and detail of traditional Victorian glasshouses, with up-to-date
technology and construction. The end result is a beautiful garden building made
from traditional materials but without the need for frequent maintenance.
Whether you simply want a place to store vulnerable specimens over the winter,
or you long for a retreat where you can while away time indulging your passion
for plants, there is a Marston & Langinger greenhouse that is right for you.
And all our buildings are designed to enhance your garden, creating an attractive,
permanent feature.
There are two designs in various sizes available from our Traditional range,

range
The two designs in our Traditional range are
full of delightful, classic features such as curved
lapped panes, hand turned finials and solid timber
panelled doors. Choose from a lean-to or a
double-pitch design that can be set on brick,
stone or rendered walls, or alternatively on a
clapboard timber base.
These durable cedar-wood buildings are crafted
in our factory in Norfolk using traditional joinery
techniques. They combine the consistent quality
of machine preparation with the individuality of
handwork. In line with our environmental vision,
our greenhouses are made using natural solid
timber from sustainable sources, and finished with
M&L’s own brand solvent-free paint, available in
70 colours.
