Luxury fencing installed at Lord’s Cricket Ground
Established in 1787, Lord’s is the most famous cricket ground in the world, and well known for its glamour and historic charm.
Due to its renowned status and architectural significance, any developments must be carefully planned and executed with the aim to ensure the ground has world-class facilities, while maintaining architectural excellence. With sustainability high on the agenda for developments, it made sense to choose a fencing company when the need arose, which shared the same ethos and supplied products to satisfy green requirements.Solution
The existing fencing which was installed in front of the Thomas Lord Suite had succumb to rot and fallen into disrepair, with some panels having fallen over and the rest leaning.
One of the key features of the suite, which is used for various events, is its vast amounts of natural light. To provide privacy across the windows of the suite without blocking all natural light, our Venetian Hit and Miss fence panels were installed to replace the old fencing. With a modern slatted appearance and hit and miss design, this extremely robust fence panel offers elegance and privacy while still allowing light through.
Satisfying the cricket ground’s preference for renewable materials, all the timber used in the fencing is responsibly sourced and then kiln dried and pressure treated with Jacksons’ unique Jakcure® preservation process. This enables Jacksons to supply all its timber products with a 25 year guarantee against rot and insect attack, reducing the lifetime cost and the amount of used fencing going to landfill.
