Quality American Barns from Jon William Stables

American Barns are a popular alternative to traditional stabling. Arranged around a central passageway, these buildings make for an efficient equestrian environment, with everything kept under one roof and providing excellent shelter from the year-round elements.

We were one of the first companies in the UK to manufacture American barns, beginning in 1987. Now, 30+ years on, we are firmly established as one of the leading suppliers of these large and highly versatile buildings.

There are many situations when a Jon William Stables American barn could be the right choice for you. They are perfect for an exposed site, providing the ultimate protection from the elements. Offering great flexibility internally, it is possible to create loose boxes, tack room areas and hay storage. Fitted rear doors allow for greater ventilation and give your horse an alternative outlook. Many design options are available – the choice is entirely yours.

Bespoke Timber Buildings

You can select from one of our beautiful, tried-and-tested design ranges, or if you prefer, we can work with you to create a bespoke american wooden barn design unique to you and built to your individual requirements.

Examples of our bespoke American Barns include a plinth system, oak detailing, tack rooms, wash down area, skylights or even an office – each design has been individually created and crafted.

If you are considering a new wooden barn and would like to discuss your options, call Jon William Stables on 01380 850 965, and let us help you create something special.

Thanks, Matthew for the field shelter. Last night threw a violent storm over it and this morning all still standing and no leaks from what I can see. Very good team on the job, thank you.

Our Unique Plinth System

Our clients love our unique Plinth System for its durability and practicality. Consisting of a galvanised steel plinth and a quality damp-proof course, the plinth system protects the bottom of your new building.

We advise against brick plinths as these become damp, move, and crumble, especially from horses’ hooves.

It is important to ensure the concrete is the correct size; therefore, a base plan will be sent to you upon confirmation of the order.
