All in a (few) days work for Inscapes Environmental.

The Alton Barnes white horse is a little under a mile north of the village of the same name in Wiltshire.Our job, on behalf of Natural England, was to restore the shape of the horse, and resurface it to make good the ravages of time.

A simple enough task on the face of it but one complicated by the fact that, because the horse is in an area of special scientific interest we had to airlift materials from a storage base to Milk Hill which stands just short of 300 metres high.

As reported earlier the project was delayed by thick fog but as we can see from this sequence of pictures the weather changed and we were able to successfully complete the project. We like to think we can rise to anything - and on this occasion we think we did!

Watch the video above (or follow this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WL21kFYxPE8) to see how we built the world’s first rugby pitch using Fibrelastic at Parc y Scarlets in Wales. This was a ground breaking project in a top class venue - completed ahead of time and on budget. Of course, what we did at Parc y Scarlets we can do for you!

Here’s a bit of fun: speeded up footage of the recent pitch installation we undertook at the Millennium Stadium in Wales. Hands up: the action actually took place over a rather longer period than 1minute and 29 seconds but everyone’s so busy these days we thought we’d better speed things up for you!
