he brief for this project was to resolve initial design ideas working closely with both the main contractor and client providing design and material solutions


to a defined budget. The existing site presented various problems and


opportunities. The new site for the Jewish care development began construction on the Golders Green Road, London in 2008, Thompson Landscapes Ltd resolved design ideas and presented final materials with the client during May 2009 and consequently were awarded the landscaping contract. Initial programme schedules were issued by TLL to ensure the use of tower cranes and maximise access for the import of materials before the site became enclosed by construction.


Large bulk materials were introduced into the main courtyard area during September 2009 by tower cranes these included bulk bags of type 1 material totalling 56m3, 8no extra heavy standard Prunus sargentii trees and 40no palleted crates of silver and mid-grey granite stone equating to 395m2. TLL then maintained the Prunus trees over the winter on a weekly basis until our commencement on site.


FIVE PHASES Landscape work began on this project in January 2010 for a period of 20 weeks. The project was divided into 5 areas or phases and these were released to TLL on scheduled dates during the progress of the project. Teams were assembled to
