G S Haydon was started by George Steven Haydon who served his apprenticeship with Francis John Buckingham at North Molton from 1909 to 1915. G S Haydon was started in 1926 by George who was a wheelwright, based in a workshop in South Molton.
From the original workshop G S Haydon moved to the workshop at Amory place in 1931. G S Haydon became G S Haydon & Son when George's son Geoffery joined the business. Geoffery learnt his trade as a Wheelwright, however as time passed the demand for this trade subsided and the business moved more and more towards carpentry and joinery. Geoffery's son Andrew joined the business and learnt his trade as a carpenter and joiner. Over the following years more machinery was added to help keep pace with demand.
Andrews son Graham joined the business and learnt his trade as a carpenter and joiner. During 2005 we built a new purpose made workshop on the Pathfields Business Park. We cover all aspects of carpentry and joinery and work with both private clients and architects. Examples of the range of work we cover can be viewed on this site in the gallery section. We are within an FSC chain of custody, a member of the British Woodwork Federation and are currently working towards achieving the Investor in People standard.
