Another project that I worked on in close co-operation and consultation
with Geoff Nichols the well known and respected environmental
consultant and author. We acted as both consultants to the MECCE
management committee as well as contractors to implement environmental
management plans and recommendations. Our main area of involvement for MECCE was
the management of the forest area as
well as the ponds and
wetlands in particular alien weed control. We also undertook many other
smaller projects for MECCE such as the transplanting of a number of
large trees to placing nesting boxes high in the trees for owls.
In
addition we produced a number of landscape designs and carried out
their implemented for private property owners within the estate.
