Current Hard Landscape Projects

RHS Chelsea Flower Show 2010

We have again been asked by Cardiff City Council to help them construct their garden at the 2010 Chelsea Flower Show. The garden celebrates the centenary of the departure from Cardiff of Captain Scott on the Terra Nova on his expedition to the South Pole. The garden is located outdoors for the first time and occupies a smaller plot and so may throw up new challenges with weather and logistics but all involved are looking forward to what we hope will be another successful Chelsea appearance.


Parc Nant Y Waun, Brynmawr

This contract follows on from previous contracts that we have undertaken at Parc Nant Y Waun in Brynmawr. These latest works include constructing a stone dust footpath to make up part of the new trim trail, excavation and de-silting of the top lake and construction of a blockstone dam, coupled with the construction of a hard stand area and connecting path to form an education pond dipping area. We will also be installing some blockstone stepping stones and a new outfall pipe with a stone headwall.


Springvale Local Nature Reserve, Cwmbran - Environmental Improvements

This contract has been let by Torfaen County Borough Council to provide improved access into and through the Springvale Local Nature Reserve which runs alongside Greenmeadow Community Farm in Cwmbran. The works primarily involve the installation of a 400 metre long macadam footpath to replace the existing muddy track. The site is also abused by motorcycles and so we are installing kissing gates at each entrance along with infill fencing and blockstone boulders in an attempt to prevent them from gaining access. Oak waymarker signs will also be installed at various locations on the adjoining business park to direct the public into the somewhat hidden reserve.


Transporter Bridge, Newport - Footpath Improvement Works

This contract, awarded by Newport City Council is the second phase of the riverside walk which runs from the famous Transporter Bridge through to Corporation Road. The stonedust surfaced footpath is in excess of 600 metres in length and is being installed along the top of the flood defence bunds which have been formed from the river mud. Consequently access is extremely limited and difficult with all materials having to be imported from one end of the path only. A kissing gate and 170 metres of post and rail fencing is also being installed to protect path users from neighbouring industry and deep water.
