Council appoints designer and landscape architect for new country park

A significant step in the creation of the district’s new country park has been made with the appointment of an award-winning landscape design and planning consultant.

Plincke Landscape Ltd will bring their extensive experience at a crucial stage of the development process for Tachbrook Country Park, working alongside the Council’s project team to prepare detailed plans to meet the strict planning and environmental credentials needed for a high-quality, sustainable green space for the community.

Colin Burden, Managing Director Plincke Ltd commented:

“Plincke are delighted to have been selected to take this project forward. The Country Park is an incredible opportunity to create nearly 50 hectares of new public green space with a range of facilities including play areas, community allotments, and attractive walking and cycling routes. Plincke has a long tradition of successful park projects within the district, and we are now looking forward to working with the Council and the many stakeholders involved over the coming months. Our focus will be ensuring that the design is rooted in its location and meets the needs of the growing community for access to safe, clean, and green outdoor open space”.

Warwick District Council’s Portfolio Holder for Neighbourhood, Councillor Will Roberts added:

“The Council remains committed to creating a vibrant, accessible park that will serve as a valuable asset to the local community for generations to come. Having worked with Plincke previously, we are confident that we now have the right team in place to turn our long-awaited vision into a reality.”

It’s anticipated that the remaining land that will make up the first phase of the country park, will be transferred to Warwick District Council ownership in early 2025 with work on site expected to begin later in the year.
