We tried out a number of different styles and combinations and garage tile manufacturers. Swisstrax garage flooring out-shined them all.

The Tile Museum was home to the Craven Dunnill factory, where decorative tiles were mass-produced from 1874 until just after the Second World War, Jackfield Tile Museum is the best surviving example of a purpose-built Victorian tile factory.
it was the Victorian tile factories of Maw and Company (1883) and Craven and Dunnill (1872) that really gave Jackfield a name. Both did highly decorative and glazed tiles, however what they call encaustic tiles were very popular and more difficult to make because it was a process of inlaying coloured clays into coloured tiles as they did in medieval times.
These tiles were hidden away next to a door that used to open to the garden off one of the old rooms, part of them hidden by a newer wall. I just love that stuff like this and that ceiling work went into the original house - it's the little things that make these places so special.
