Rother Valley & Thrybergh Country Park.
Rotherham
A twinned project to the country parks of Rother Valley and Thrybergh in the wider Rotherham area. Both the design approaches to these environmental attractions meet a standard of ecological protection and habitat creation while providing multiple character areas for play, water activities and recreation.
