(For Beaconsfield Town Council)
The Town Hall Green is located in the heart of Beaconsfield New Town by the Town Hall and next to the railway station. We were asked by the town council to progress a new design of the Town Hall Green and to project manage the construction and planting works to completion.
We selected a theme of celebrating the rich links that the town has with its literary past, fine metalwork details evident in the Old Town and historic modes of transport. We designed a clay cobbled seating area with an Armillary sundial, designed by David Harber Associates, as a focus. We also designed the wrought ironwork displays arrayed around the seating area. Famous people remembered included GK Chesterton and Enid Blyton.
The displays also celebrate the 700 year town street fair, a 1600 wall painting of a Lute player, a coach and horses, the local railway and Bekonscot model village. Further items on this project can be found by clicking the
