Due to the rock and soil build up of the area, the nutritional value of the soil and the rock build up is important in the habitats for wild salmon, trout, beavers, and owls to name a few. There is risk of contaminating the river and soil of the river which could easily wash debris and waste up the river and destroy habitats.

The site is part of a region where the bedrock is made of Roeburndale member bedrock,Ward’s Stone Sandstone. It is typically sharp and erosional, and rests upon siltstones and fine-grained sandstones of the Roeburndale specific to lancashire. The slow food attitude extends to that of the environment- to protect it as it provides us with nutritional value that we must not destroy.

Site looks as if it is in the middle of a bounty of food, however, it is actually isolated from the purchase of food there are more chances to buy food in supermarkets than it is to get it from a farm. As these farms sell their produce to industry only. Distance from food and its source is further here than in the city where it appears more abundant

The link
The site is isolated and even though in close proximity to farms the ‘distance’ from food is further than people who live in the city, which makes sharing between the community more important. It becomes the link between enjoyment of food and living to the land where it is from. Its connection with the land is potentially evident, but the appreciation of slow food is not. The site looks like a rural food growing heaven from afar, but in actual fact it has been a paved building site since 1930s with crumbling rock faces. The rocks themselves are dangerous river habitat and can distrupt the flow of the river. Building on the site can also affect flying creatures like owls and bats.
CLARISSA Y E E
crumbling rock faces made of sandstone and limestone- integral to landscape but not good for growing on

Sizes of the Jet grouting depend on the stability of the soil but can be up to 2m wide. View under main timber structure where timber columns meet jet grouting (soil stabilisation piles)
By using the Jet grouting method of making foundations, this not only improves the quality of the soil but is enriching and improving the stability of the soil and maintains the natural feel of the soil around it.
