August Highlights

New installs, works in progress, and some familiar faces we checked in on, here's what happened in August.

New play unit for Alexandra Park
‍

Alexandra Park in Edgeley has a new play unit. We replaced the old rope unit with a new rope climber, slide tower and custom rope bridge, designed around the existing footprint to make the most of the council's budget.

Take a look at the project case study here.

Out with the old, in with the new.

Bespoke builds

The workshop's had more bespoke builds coming through than usual this month. Curved steelwork, custom panels, one-off details, there's always something interesting taking shape on the floor.

Measuring twice, cutting once.

A sneak peek

We recently carried out the first installation of a brand new toddler play unit range we have been working on behind the scenes, designed with our youngest visitors in mind.

More to come very soon.

Almost ready for the professional play testers...

First look: Waddesdon Manor

We had a first look at a new install by Touchwood Play at Wild Wood Adventure Playground, Waddesdon Manor. We engineered and built the tunnel slides, mesh crawl tunnels and bespoke roof steelwork, designed to fit within Touchwood's structure and site layout.

The scheme looks amazing and we are proud to have collaborated on such an exciting build!

Learn more about the finished space here.

Smiles = good playground.

Revisiting Hey Duggee's Clubhouse

We were back at Alton Towers for a site survey and took the chance to swing by Hey Duggee's Clubhouse in CBeebies Land, a project we delivered with Merlin Entertainments back in 2021.

Good to see the slides, crawl tunnel and talk tubes still going strong, five years of visitors later.

See our project case study here.

Catching up with Duggee.

And there's more where that came from...

As always, our design team are keeping busy with more exciting projects in the works that we can't wait to share. Watch this space.

Until next time!
