Approved cinematic interpretation / Main Ridge pavilion / documented design

Groundworks and property coordination

Consider the whole property.

Groundworks, water movement, access and rural structures shape the way an equine property works. Begin with the connections between them.

The initial brief

Start with the conditions you know.

All services
  1. 01

    Read the conditions

    Tell us about existing access, slopes, wet areas and infrastructure. Locality is enough for the first enquiry; detailed site information can be discussed later.

  2. 02

    Connect the work

    Arenas, stables, shelters, yards and gathering spaces share access and services. Consider the overall arrangement before treating each structure as a separate project.

  3. 03

    Agree the stages

    Identify what needs to happen first and what may follow. Any scope, specialist input, programme and budget need to be discussed for the actual property.

Before the details are fixed

Bring the questions as well as the plans.

New, existing or staged

Tell us what is there now, what needs to change first and what could follow later. A larger ambition can begin with a clear account of the immediate problem.

Discuss an existing property

Scope and budget

Share your priorities and any budget or timing constraints you are comfortable discussing. Scope, specialist input, exclusions and pricing need to be agreed for the actual project.

Discuss the overall project

Life after the build

Consider who will maintain the spaces and what equipment they will use. Ask about care requirements, handover information and any ongoing support when the project scope is discussed.

Ask a project question

The first conversation

You do not need every answer before we talk.

Start with the property, the horses and what you would like to change. Share the locality and a short outline. Plans and photographs may help later, but a finished design is not a condition of making an initial enquiry.

The appropriate next step depends on the project. Any site visit, assessment scope or associated fee will need to be discussed and agreed.
