Great Bardfield – Charnwood Arc 5 Store Stand Multi-Fuel Stove

Posted By paddy

 

Increasingly it seems to me that most of the blogs I write about stoves are either about antique stoves or examples of rare stoves or stoves I am unfamiliar with. Here is a case of the latter, a stove make that I had never seen or heard of before, so by inference a rarity in this area. This is a Charnwood Arc 5 Store Stand Multi-Fuel Stove – I think its rarity is as much due to its recent appearance on the stove market as Charnwood have been updating their models. Up until recently Charnwood did not manufacture a cylindrical stove, so the Arc is something of a development for them. The Arc comes in two models, the 5 and the slightly larger 7 – I think that you will agree that both are very stylish and contemporary and as in this example, they look great in an old setting. There is something rather pleasing about that juxtaposition between traditional and contemporary, I think it works really well here in this old timber framed cottage.

Charnwood stoves are a very well known stove manufacturer and are located on the isle of Wight. A J Wells & Sons Ltd, the manufacturers of Charnwood Stoves, was founded in 1972 and is a privately owned, family controlled, British company that specialises in the design and manufacture of high quality wood burning and multifuel stoves. They are actually the oldest British manufacturer of wood burning stoves, run by second and third generations of the family. There advertising blurb states that they “are dedicated to providing products of enduring design and of the highest quality”.

It all started in 1972, when Alfred Wells and two of his sons, started a small engineering business in Niton on the Isle of Wight. Over the last forty years we have grown from our original small factory of around 1500 sq. ft to our current site of over 50,000sq. Ft.

We have always been keen to provide local employment on the Isle of Wight and have seen the number of our employees rise from the original 3 to well over 150. The company state that they are very proud of our workforce who have rewarded them by staying loyal to the company, with many staff having worked with us for over 25 years. Such continuity brings stability to the business ensuring that pride in the company and the quality of our products is maintained. The owners of the company are Christians and Christian values and principles underpin the way they do business and run the company.

Their company advertising goes on to say that “commitment to our staff is vital as is the commitment to invest in the latest technology to ensure the highest quality. Over the years we have installed our own Vitreous Enamelling Plant, CNC controlled Press Brakes, Robotic Welders and a state of the art Laser Profiler all of which allow pin point accuracy resulting in superior quality. Keeping the manufacture of as many parts as possible in-house enables us to maintain full production control to provide our customers with long-lasting products leading the field technically in both operation and function.
