£1.7m hockey development for Sedbergh

SSL are proud to be the lead consultant appointed by Sedbergh School to design and deliver their double hockey pitch development.

The double pitch project involved careful realignment of Old Peculier, an important wetland area. Recognising the sensitive setting, the works were planned in close collaboration with Yorkshire Dales ecologists and over 72 trees, numerous shrubs & marginal pond species were planted.

Both synthetic pitches at Sedbergh School achieve the highest possible playing standards for a sand dressed synthetic turf surface, as certified by the International Hockey Federation (FIH).

Working together with a fantastic project team, SSL led the project through feasibility, design development & construction. A huge effort across a range of project considerations all helped to create an amazing facility.
