Built By Skilled Craftsmen
At Herringport Bespoke Kitchens and Furniture we manufacture the very best handmade kitchens Suffolk and Norfolk has to offer.
Our workshops are situated on the riverside at Gorleston on what’s known as Darby’s Hard – where clinker-built herring boats were once dragged up the slipways and repaired.
They say the herring boats were so numerous back in the day that you could walk from one side of the river to the other across their decks. That’s hard to believe now, but photographs from the period seem to back up the claim.
Further back in history the townspeople would have crowded outside what are now our workshops to see Lord Nelson return victorious from The Battle of the Nile.
How we started
We started off in business by building those clinker boats, but, as fibreglass took over, we switched to making furniture instead using traditional woodworking techniques and hand tools but incorporating modern wood preparation methods.
Today the building is used by our craftsmen to build bespoke kitchens, furniture, beds, along with fitted and freestanding wardrobes.
You’re welcome to come and visit us to see how we operate and discuss your handmade kitchen requirements. Everything is made to your specifications, and if you have any special requirements they can be incorporated into your design.
If you’d like to make an appointment just call 01493 442 115 today.
Take a look
Our website has a gallery where you can view the various styles of handmade kitchens we have on offer. You’ll find it at this link – there are stunning Shaker designs, stylish contemporary designs, elegant Victorian designs, country kitchens, painted units, and freestanding kitchen cupboards and units too.
All are made by hand from top quality hand-picked timber and painted in our custom spray booth giving a beautiful, lasting finish.

You’ve worked hard, and you deserve it. Some of our customers have bought kitchens from us for their homes and their holiday homes, then, if they move, they come back to us for another one. They tell us they love the quality of our products and the service we offer – always delivering on time, and always giving great value for money.
