golden clough bridge
Peak District National Park Authority
This bridge was carved from a naturally-curved sweet chestnut tree growing just 200 yards from the site. Along with the National Park's countryside maintenance team who helped, I walked into the site each day and not having to use any heavy machinery meant that the carbon footprint of the bridge was very low. <you can watch a video of the bridge being made here>

river noe bridge
private commission / the Stile Company
For a client in commemoration of her husband who was a keen walker. The previous bridge had been washed away and walkers have had to ford the stream for the previous 2 years. It was made from one piece of curved oak and the handrails cut from the same tree to follow the same line. Winner of 2005 CPRE Design Award.

sculptural fencing
Crich Tramway Museum
The tramway viewpoint is like a rock tower and the fence like a castle on top, but still with a very organic look as if it has grown there. The boards are carved to allow children and people sitting on the benches to see through the gaps whilst leaving plenty of protection from the elements.

sculptural fencing
private commission
Made to provide some privacy from the neighbouring garden and also to keep the dog in! The fence was constructed about a year ago and the oak slats have now gently weathered to a soft silver colour.
