Montage, font detail, stone detail for Old Pale Community Woodland, Delamere
Old Pale is one of the highest points in Delamere Forest from where seven counties can be seen. The Landscape Architect at Delamere designed a feature to celebrate the view, setting seven stones in a Fibonacci circle radiating from a central bunter sandstone. I liaised with CED, the company that sourced the stones from various quarries. I wrote a lyrical potted history of the area, which was carved onto a bronze plaque on the central stone. I also drew up and calculated the size of the fonts and symbols for the engraver.

This shows some of my work on the Nottingham Trent Flood Alleviation Scheme. As well as developing a maintenance plan for the scheme I also prepared illustrative, qualitative and quantitative documentation.
The ÂŁ51 million scheme aims to reduce the risk to 16,000 homes and businesses along a 27 kilometre stretch of the River Trent. The defence alignment through Attenborough was particularly challenging because of its proximity to a nature reserve designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). I modelled a long section of the flood alleviation wall in this section, which gave the planners a clearer idea of whether the materials and construction of the pillars and wall were appropriate for the sensitive areas through which the wall passed.

The LVIA accompanied an application under the Forestry Commission’s English Woodland Grant Scheme for a 162 hectare planting scheme at Baylis’s Hill Farm, Stratford Road , Honeybourne. This LVIA was carried out on behalf of The Heart of England Forest Ltd., a registered charity and Felix Dennis, the land owner.
LVIA - Worcestershire Views looking into proposed woodland
The proposal was assessed by taking short, middle and long distance views into the proposed woodland as well as short, middle and long distance views from the proposed woodland. In addition the site of the proposed planting was viewed from several high spots including Dover’s Hill and Evesham Tower. The majority of views are in the public domain, except for the short distance views looking out of the site, which are currently private property but will become accessible, if the proposed woodland is planted.
