A master wheelwright whose work is so skilled he repairs the Queen’s royal carriages has been appointed an MBE.
Gregory Rowland, 52, is one of a small number of expert tradesmen still using traditional methods to make and fix wooden wheels.
Mr Rowland, from Honiton in Devon, runs Mike Rowland & Son Wheelwrights and Coachbuilders – a firm started by his father in 1964.
