Clark and Carter

Clark & Carter is a long-established, family-run restoration and servicing business based in Cressing, Braintree. They operate multiple workshops, a parts department and vehicle storage, specialising in Rolls‑Royce, Bentley and high-end classic cars.

The company dates to 1982 and has a track record of concours awards and large restoration projects. Visits are practical and workshop-focused rather than a public museum experience; most interactions are by prior arrangement.

On arrival you'll see active workshops and restored cars in various stages of completion. Staff focus on mechanical restoration, bodywork, trim and parts supply, and you may view examples of award-winning projects.

What you'll see:

• Multiple working workshops with technicians servicing and restoring classic cars.
• Dedicated parts department and stores with OEM and repro components.
• Finished and in-progress restorations, including Rolls‑Royce and Bentley examples.
• Vehicle storage areas and specialist tooling used for high-end restoration.

Best way to experience it:

Contact the company in advance to arrange an appointment or guided visit, allow time for a walkthrough and questions, and expect limited access to sensitive areas for safety and client confidentiality.

• Visits are by appointment; not a walk-in public museum.
• Main opening hours are weekdays, with limited Saturday hours.
• Site has on-site parking and a helicopter pad noted for clients.
• Expect restricted access around active restoration work for safety.
