Projects
Wandsworth Roundabout
Wandsworth Roundabout Wandsworth Roundabout is a TFL (Transport For London) asset. For for the last 10 years, PGSD Limited has mown the wild grass six times per year and cleaned up once a year. For a variety of reasons, the site was attracting litter. PGSD received an instruction through CVU London Highways Alliance (contracted to TFL) to completely clear the area, only leaving the trees. The project included the installation of new turf to create a park like area for local residents to use. Alan Davidson from TFL had a vision of bringing the area back as a pleasant place to be which could be enjoyed by the public.
Dalston Curve
Case Studies Dalson Eastern Curve GardenLocation: Hackney, Dalston Junction - E8 3DF Type of scheme: Regeneration / Community Open Space Size: 5,500 m2 Lead Landscape Architect: J & L Gibbons Outline Brief: Regeneration of abandoned railway land that had not been used for 30 years. Making Space in Dalston promoted an alternative approach to regeneration, whereby a process of communication and action research helped develop a shared vision with residents, businesses and local organisations. The project looked at how more public space could be created without losing the existing qualities of the neighbourhood. A key concern was how to embrace change while nurturing the self-organising distinctiveness of Dalston that is inherent in both its social capital and physical character. Client: London Borough of Hackney / London Development Agency Contract Value: £1 million. Completion Date: Spring 2010. Awards: Landscaping: Hackney Design Awards 2010. Architectural: Winner President's Award and Urban Design and Master planning category 2011 Landscape Institute Awards; Commended NLA Awards 2011, Place Making; Winner 2010 LI Awards Communications and Presentation category. Materials: Sand, cement, ballast, semi-permeable membranes, 10mm pea shingle, Ashwell timber sleeper, timber edging, strapping, grass seed, Jarrah decking boards (Eucalyptus marginata), reclaimed sleeper cladding, weldmesh fencing, entrance gates.
Stanley School Pond
On Sunday May 17th 2015 Stanley Primary School Teddington opened their school pond installation constructed by PGSD Ltd. It was opened by local Mayoress Jane Boulton as part of their vibrant May Fair. The event was well attended by parents, students and local residents. Who enjoyed a band, ferret racing, mobile zoo and local pub Brouge at the Old Goat supplied refreshments. After cutting the red ribbon, the new school pond installation was open for visitors. Children were able to take part in a variety of activities, including a quiz on the wildlife and helping to plant vegetables and plants. But most popular was the pond dipping to see what had move in already. There were plenty of insects to see and the caretaker has already spotted a newt! They have also had a beautiful outdoor classroom installed to allow the children to learn in this fantastic environment, complete with a throne! PGSD Ltd is delighted with how the pond is already integrated to the landscape. It was great to see the finished product being enjoyed by so many people. We were part of a group of contractors who worked on various parts of the school site in the past 12 months. The change in the overall look of the site has been interesting to see. Well done to everyone involved. The School won a Silver Gilt award for their Living Classroom at the Richmond Borough in Bloom awards. PGSD's pond forms part of this.
