This book was published in June and Flaybrick has a six page entry which emphasises how Edward Kemps landscaping skills give the Gardens such a high status. The entry was compiled by the friends at considerable effort as the standard of this publication is very high. Once again, although we are a relatively small voluntary group, we have placed Birkenhead alongside Rome, Copenhagen, London, Athens, Berlin, Zagreb, Vienna Hamburg , Oslo, Naples, Bergen, Granada and Gothenberg in a European wide publication in 5 languages.
This dynamic and original concept has been developed by Nick Harding, ranger for Flaybrick. The architects Ainsley Gommon have bid for the restoration of the Flaybrick Chapels and together with Curtins Engineering, (Principal Contractor for the Albert Dock) and Redfern Morrison and Thomas, (quantity surveyors), have produced an 11 page tender for a £14,000 feasibility study. Alf Plant, director, Ainsley Gommon Architects, has said that the project is an exiting one and that their plan would compliment the existing architecture and incorporate innovative modern design. The total cost of the new centre is £1.25 million and we are currently exploring funding options. However the primary concern is to raise £7000, which together with match funding from Wirral Borough Council will enable the feasibility study to go ahead before it becomes time expired. | ||
