Ecology at Work, Stockpile Gardens
Image: © Des Blenkinsopp Taken: 29 Apr 2024
A landscape research project on one of the largest construction sites in Europe. Demolition of old industrial buildings over a wide area has created a new landscape and habitat about which apparently very little is known. Behind the fence here are heaps of assorted demolition debris, concrete, sand, stones etc. which are being studied for how the various types of wasteland return to nature.
