Still in the process of construction and part of a huge series of drainage works designed for the treatment of Brighton's waste water. The development has been nine years in the planning and involved a number of legal battles against the local residents who were against the scheme and dubbed it 'Poohaven'. The works have been built and have been covered with a grass turf roof that is curved to enable it to fit into the local landscape.
