Coyle Timber is the largest manufacturer of riven Oak batten in the U.K. Our riven Oak batten is split in the same way as our plastering lath giving it incredible strength. Riven Oak batten is used for the restoration of historic roofs and comes in two common sizes, but bespoke sizes can be made to order.
For an example see the tithe barn at Harmondsworth near Heathrow (one of Britain’s most important historical buildings).
1.22 meter (4ft) lengths, 25 pieces per bundle, giving 30.5 meters (100ft)
