Leaves of Southwell Project Update 🌿#26

Work has now progressed to the Palace Gardens, which were developed and opened to the public first of all in 2014 and have since become a much-loved community space for theatre events, family fun days, weddings and informal visitors – stunning and relaxing all year round.

The #leavesofsouthwell project, part-funded by the @heritagefunduk , will improve the paths and install power, Wi-Fi and lighting. There will also be a new Outdoor Learning Centre, better signage and interpretation (more news about that coming later in the summer), and expansion into the paddock area.

New plants will echo the realistic carved Chapter House leaves as we create an area of relaxation, learning and reflection or prayer.

Leaves of Southwell Project Update 🌿#25

Some final touches have now been put to the Chapter House. Skillington’s workshop have cleaned the carvings and stonework, repointing and grouting cracks with lime mortar and making repairs as they go.

A new discreet, hi-tech lighting system is fully installed and tested – we can now light up the Chapter House properly for the first time in its 700 year old history, meaning the world-renowned naturalistic carvings can be seen at their best, day or night. Here you can see the testing of the new lights.

Join us tomorrow afternoon at 5pm as The Leaves of Southwell Project Presents: Just Look!
a online talk by Helen Eger and Canon Nigel Coates.

If the best art is that which awakens the soul, there is much to be said for being woken up gently and not being given too much information too soon. This talk describes the interpretation strategy developed by Studio Eger that is minimal in intervention, but which seeks none the less to deepen appreciation for the the Leaves of Southwell as ‘one of the glories of Europe.

Leaves of Southwell Project Update 🌿#23

Work continues on our #LeavesofSouthwell project funded by the @heritagefunduk

After 18 months of having skilled contractors on site undertaking exciting conservation work to the Chapter House, essential repairs to the roof and improvements to the safety and appearance of the Minster both inside and out, we are fast approaching the final straight with just a few months to go. The trenches, which now go almost all the way around the Minster’s exterior, may be unsightly at the moment but cabling and installation of new low level lighting along all external paths and for the new floodlights is almost completed.
