Marking a New Era

TGP Landscape Architects Ltd was assigned the task of designing the landscape at Greg’s Place, a vibrant outdoor community space which recently opened at the University of York, replacing the previous dilapidated Vanbrugh Piazza.

Helping TGP to mark a new era for the University, Tobermore supplied the landscape architect with modern Manhattan plank paving and Granite Step Units which were used to create a unique, striking hard landscape.

Greg’s Place was named in honour of Greg Dyke, a highly respected journalist, broadcaster, and chairman of The Football Association, who was additionally Chancellor at the University for 11 years.

Sympathetic infusion of old and new

DS Properties undertook the task of redeveloping The Pumphouse which previously formed part of Barry’s historic dock complex and provided one of the few hydraulic power buildings in Wales.

The building had gone unused for several years but had always remained a local landmark and so the decision was

made to regenerate the site for housing and commercial accommodation.

Retaining the nostalgic style was hugely important so the developer was seeking hard landscaping products that would complement the traditional surroundings. Tobermore provided the perfect solution in the form of vintage-themed product, Tegula, and striking plank paving product, Manhattan.

Case Study

“We are absolutely delighted with the result and in reference to the hard landscaping works, we would most certainly recommend the products and service provided by Tobermore – it was excellent.”
