Long Marston sits on the flat Feldon plain south-west of Stratford, in a landscape that is noticeably more exposed than the Avon Valley. The village faces the full force of south-westerly weather systems without the shelter of the surrounding hills that protects Shipston-on-Stour or the Avon Valley towns. Properties on the western edge of the village, particularly those fronting or close to the Mickleton Road, experience some of the highest wind-driven rain loads of any location in our Stratford service territory. This translates into more frequent ridge and verge attention and a higher incidence of west-facing flashing failure.
The housing stock in Long Marston is a mix of older farmhouse and cottage properties in the village centre — some with Cotswold-influence stone or clay tile roofing — and a number of more modern rural properties and conversions that have been developed on the Feldon fringe in recent decades. The surrounding countryside generates regular agricultural and barn roofing calls, including several large equestrian properties where stable and arena roof maintenance forms part of the annual maintenance cycle.
The three most frequent repair calls from Long Marston: wind-driven ridge displacement and verge failure on exposed west-facing properties; lead flashing failure on farmhouse and barn conversion chimneys due to sustained wind pressure on west elevations; and agricultural roofing maintenance on the working farms and equestrian properties in the surrounding CV37 countryside.

Long Marston is a flat, low-lying village south-west of Stratford in brick and render, damp-prone on open ground near the Avon meadows.
Knowing the local stock matters. It tells us which tiles to match, whether a roof is likely to need lime mortar or a modern dry-fix, and where the weather tends to find a way in. A roofer who works Long Marston week in, week out quotes from what is actually on your roof — not from a generic price list.
Across Long Marston and the surrounding CV37 area, a handful of faults account for most of our call-outs:
Caught early, every one of these is a modest repair. Left to run, each turns into something bigger — which is why a quick look now is always cheaper than a ceiling repair later.

“Exposed farmhouse on the Mickleton Road — the west-facing ridge had been losing mortar every winter for three years. They specified a flexible bedding mortar appropriate for the wind exposure and re-fixed mechanically. Problem solved.”
“Emergency call after gales took tiles off the barn roof. They were here within two hours, covered it safely, and returned the following week for the full repair. Exactly what you need in the middle of harvest.”
“Full re-roof on our rural conversion. Complex hip arrangement with three dormers. They managed the whole job methodically and the finish is excellent. Not the cheapest quote but clearly the right choice.”
Yes. Long Marston is approximately 5 miles from Stratford and is covered as part of our rural service territory. Response times for emergency calls are typically 30 to 45 minutes.
Long Marston sits on the open Feldon plain with minimal shelter from the prevailing south-westerlies. Properties here receive significantly higher wind loads than those in the Avon Valley, which accelerates mortar degradation, flashing movement and tile displacement on exposed elevations.
