About Thomas Clough Upholstery

Thomas has been an upholsterer for over thirty years, having studied furniture production at High Wycombe College, leading to a lifetime of practising traditional upholstery. Thomas and his team are based at the Old Maltstore, a fine 17th Century malt store on quiet lane in the heart of Knighton. Thomas is a certificated member of the guild of Traditional Upholsterers as well as having a City and Guild qualification for teaching adults. Thomas initially practised in the Lake district and then for the last twenty-five years has practised in Knighton, a beautiful border town in Mid Wales. Having restored furniture, and run courses in this beautiful area, operating first from the barns at The Upper House, Discoed, home to John Nethercott & Co the fine furniture makers, and then in several local village halls, he established a centre for practicing and teaching upholstery at The Old Maltstore. Most weeks will find a bustling enthusiastic bunch of upholsterers, young and old, skilled and learners, battling over their projects. Thomas’s upholstery work for clients includes furniture from the 17th century onwards, including fragile historic pieces and contemporary traditional furniture. His courses are suitable for all and he is happy to give advice about the type of project that will be right for individuals. He gives lots of tailored support to ensure projects are completed to a high standard. He can also recommend local accommodation in the town for those wishing to stay.
