Traditionally this vent is called a Cowl and is a device used on a kiln to keep the weather out of, and induce a flow of air through, the kiln. They are associated with Oast Houses but can also be found on breweries.

The Oast House Cowl.
Late Monday afternoon a crane will be arriving to lower a vent onto the tower of The Oast House. It arrived early this week and we just can't wait to get it up. It will be illuminated and will act almost as a beacon on top of the ancient looking building.

Interior and Exterior Cladding moves forward.
The exterior cladding has flown up! The bonding of the brick slips to the main structure is complete and the reclaimed timber and stone block slips are not far behind. Window and door frames are in and the joiners are working hard to build the hardwood framed doors. This wood was hand selected from old reclaimed timber yards in Wicklow, Southern Irland.
The interior is also moving fast. Fire boarding complete, electrics in and the corrugated tin roof has been fixed above the bar area. The stunning reclaimed timbers have been attached under the balcony and to the steel beams.
