Castlefield Viaduct Vision

Proposed

The Castlefield Viaduct Vision incorporates gardens that are a mix of National Trust planting and plots designed and grown by community organisations.

The Castlefield Viaduct Vision incorporates gardens that are a mix of National Trust planting and plots designed and grown by community organisations. They will remain as temporary 'installations' while the National Trust continues to gather feedback and fundraise in efforts to create a permanent feature on the 330-metre steel, Grade II listed, viaduct. The seasonal displays seek to inspire visitors to contribute their ideas of what they would like the space to become in the future.

This project is featured alongside our Public London: Activating the City insight study. The publication, exhibition and online project directory explore what constitutes a successful and democratic public realm today, the role of co‑creation and partnerships, and how we can ensure that places are fit‑for‑purpose in the long term.
