Greg Rowland

Craft

He can trace his family trade back to the 1300’s, he produces wheels for the queens carriages or ones to hold ancient cannons, wheel making is in Greg’s blood and his new apprentice will make sure this tradition is carried on to another generation.

It was a beautiful day as we pulled up the drive to Rowland Wheelwrights. Through the windscreen of the Landy we could see three people moving a loom. Greg was the first to notice us and he headed out to say hello through the open doors with the Royal Coat of Arms hanging high above the entrance. He introduced us to Mike his dad and George his young apprentice.
