Hides, Platforms and Bridges
We can design and build horticultural shelters, summer houses, wildlife observation hides, pond platforms, wetland or woodland boardwalks and bridges, We are particularly pleased to be involved in this type of work with our strong ecological interests.
Customers often require bespoke designs to fit into the local environment. Walkways, platforms and bridges, provide safe access and attractive focal points to any location.
Custom-built pond platforms are a safe way to access water, great for pond dipping.
Wetland trails, boardwalks and bog bridges are becoming more common and are found around visitor centres, on nature reserves and public accessed space.
We can offer some wildlife garden design skills, such as log piles, stones, water features, eco ponds.
Sustainable design
Sustainable design essentially asks the designer or builder:
- Can we use the proposed construction technique and expect the materials and the various processes to be available years from now if we need to replace part of the trail?
- When the item is no longer usable, can any of the materials be recycled?
- Can recycled materials be used in the construction?
- Are recycled materials appropriate for the proposed use?
