Upon self-employment working as a joiner this developed into Castle Kitchens with a kitchen Show room on Castle Gate in Berwick upon tweed during this phase of the company development George and Linda were seeking out building plots and renovation projects as smaller developers. This soon progressed into buying larger projects for development.
