Billy Hunt is located on a large Victorian farm just a short country drive from the Rangemore village, a designated conservation area, which was built by Michael Thomas Bass in the 1850s to house the Bass Rangemore Estate workers consisting mainly of Victorian redbrick cottages and the occasional barn.
Our home is a classic Victorian designed and well equipped late 19th century 2 story red brick built barn of some 4000 sq feet nestled in classic English countryside, which enjoyed a careful full renovation in 2000. The estate still benefits being managed in the traditional manner with an Estate Manger, estate carpenter, gardeners etc. A rather delightful place to have as our work space.
Martina, there is no Billy at Billy hunt, has led the team since 2103 and is an interior designer qualified from The Inchbald School of Design London whose previous working life included such clients as Vertu, Aston Martin and Johnnie Walker to name a few.
We always endeavor to offer a careful selection of chosen pieces from the British Isles ranging from 1800 to 1990 with makers such as Heal’s, Gillows, Pieff, Howard, Younger, Gomme, Archie Shine to name a few. Worth remembering, we are a business and as such we purchase what our clients desire alongside what we enjoy. Our pieces are usually ready for placing, with the option of professional reupholstery on seating if you desire - please see our upholstery page. We prefer to keep our pricing intelligent, knowledgeable, current and sensible, so no silly over inflated price tags to give you mouth watering discounts like some in our field seem to prefer…
Our extensive client base covers the celebrated, international clients, interior designers, film companies and ladies and gentlemen like us who enjoy our professional, skilled, friendly and knowledgeable approach.

Description
Vintage Fire Bin on Wheels From Richard Arkwright Masson Mills x2
“Masson Mill was built in 1783 and proclaims Arkwright’s growing wealth and self confidence. Unlike the mills at Cromford, it is built on a major river, the river Derwent, which offered Arkwright the opportunity of a power source ten times greater than he enjoyed at his Cromford site. The mills are part Derwent Valley Mills UNESCO World Heritage Site and are now home to a textile museum”
We are fortunate to have purchased the fire bins direct from the mill which would have been used in the winding shed. This is going to make a fabulous log holder or maybe cane or umbrella holder with its genuine worn look and feel to the red paint and black lettering “ FOR FIRE ONLY”. It sits well on the 4 heavy castors which are spinning well and we also have a lid!
Price is for 1 we have two.
A truly tremendous opportunity to own a piece from a historic English mill in lovely historic and time worn condition.
