- Help the declining sparrow population by putting up one of these bird boxes designed especially for house sparrows.
- Fixed roof to enable the bird box to be fitted right up in the eaves just where the sparrows prefer.
- We manufacture these bird boxes from precision cut FSC certified wooden panels treated with water based environmentally friendly preservative.
- The bird nesting boxes can be joined together or added to our Sparrow Terrace to provide nest sites for a growing colony.
In the last few decades the population of house sparrows has declined dramatically. Our sparrow box has been designed to provide much-needed nesting places for our endangered House Sparrows. House sparrows nest colonially so several of these bird nesting boxes are best put up together.
Our unique design means that our House Sparrow Boxes can be joined together in a variety of shapes and the individual house sparrow box can be easily added onto our Sparrow Terrace if your colony has expanded and you wish to provide additional space.
The box is the ideal size and dimensions for house sparrows with a 32mm entrance hole. It features a fixed roof which enables the box to be fitted right up at the eaves just where the sparrows prefer. The box is easy to fit with a concealed keyhole at the back of the box (easy to reach with a screwdriver through the hole). Each box has slide out floor with drainage holes to enable easy cleaning at the end of the nesting season.
The box is constructed from precision cut FSC certified exterior grade plywood and has been treated with an environmentally friendly preservative which is kind to the birds but helps to ensure a long lasting dry comfortable nest box.

In partnership with The Nestbox Company
nature first since 1996
We aim for our boxes to provide the best accommodation for wildlife and our primary concern with all our products is that they should be designed appropriately for their target species.
Our boxes replicate as far as possible the conditions which are found in natural nest and roost sites.
designed by experts
Before we design any box we consider the requirements of the proposed inhabitants through reviews of published studies and consultation with experts in their field.
Combined with our experience of designing and manufacturing boxes and customer feedback we produce what we hope are boxes which offer the best accommodation for wildlife.
During the development of our products we are grateful to have received input of various kinds from many sources including, amongst others, the RSPB, the Barn Owl Trust, the University of Warwick, ZSL London Zoo, Staffordshire University, the Bat Conservation Trust, Aston University, the People's Trust for Endangered Species, Coventry University and the British Hedgehog Preservation Society.
made in britain
We started making nest boxes in 1996 based in a shed in Herefordshire. Since then, we’ve grown in size to become one of the largest producers of roost, nest, and wildlife boxes in the UK.
The Nestbox Company is run by father and sons; Peter, Tristan and Damian.
We manufacture our products in our own rural workshops, and combine modern production technology, with traditional hand finishing.
