Bird Brick Houses provide permanent nesting sites and wildlife enclosures as an integral part of a building.

Designed in conjunction with specialist ecologists, the wood lined boxes provide exactly the right environment for most of the UK’s bat species. The unique design facilitates brick matched bat and bird boxes that blend with the host wall, and specially adapted boxes are available for render, stone and weatherboarding. There are also little owl boxes, tawny owl boxes and bug boxes!

Founded by Duncan and Jenny McCutchan some twenty years ago, and based in East Sussex, the couple are passionate about wildlife and countryside, which is allied to Duncan’s expertise in the building industry.

Their aim is to make people aware that despite a highly populated world, ways need to be found of nurturing and protecting wildlife for this, and future generations. With over thirty years in the construction sector, their growing and award winning team work closely with architects, developers, planners and ecologists to continually develop bird and bat boxes.
