concentrate on specific areas and join together within the final phase to complete hard landscaping works to the main entrance of the building. Due to delays from other site trades the MC handed various phases over at later dates than scheduled, and together with the inclement weather and snow experienced in January it left them with 2 weeks less than actually programmed. A large push included the introduction of further TLL staff and additional hours appointed to ensure they reached their determined handover dates with the MC.


Due to the site being situated in the heart of the Jewish community, religious holidays including the Sabbath were closely adhered to and all staff were removed from site during these times to cause the

minimum of disruption to the neighbouring Jewish community.


Hard Landscaping included the initial ground-


works to prepare the site for the introduction of all concrete beds to paved areas.


SAFETY FIRST Paving was purposefully designed to outline all areas with a contrasting colour to enable partially sighted residents to navigate all areas. A flamed granite throughout provided a non slip finish to all paved areas enabling safe transport. The central courtyard is the main focus of the


development with a 360° view from the surround- ing building. A safe raised water feature was designed and installed to segregate and divide areas


of the courtyard whilst introducing movement, reflection and sound to the environment. The water feature was divided into 2 separate pools and stainless rills with an uplit waterfall at the outlet, this was positioned to be both a feature within the courtyard and also within the main entrance as a focal point through the glass surround.The construction was clad in bespoke mitre cut grey granite profiles designed and scheduled by TLL.A hardwood pergola was positioned within the courtyard as a place to rest and relax, this is planted with climbing Vitis to create dappled shade. The pergola was developed to allow the temporary installation of canvas sides in order for the structure to be used as a sukkah during the Jewish sukkot festival.
