There has been a sawmill on this site since the early 1900's, originally serving the "Boxley Estate" which covered a large area including Grove Green, Sandling, Weavering, Walderslade Woods and Lordswood. In 1971 the Dowle family started trading from the premises manufacturing chestnut products, coppicing from surrounding chestnut woodland.
At one time being the largest chestnut user in Kent. As times changed and less chestnut material was required, the focus was transferred to selling mainstream fencing materials, including panels and posts. Jim Dowle has since retired, however his daughter Kym, along with her husband Sean McMillan have taken over the daily running of the business, with assistance from Mark, Rob and Aidan.
