Berkeley Garden Plot - WORKS!!
This is a wonderfully planted garden plot in Berkeley Community Gardens. The gardener has taken the time to put statues and a bench throughout the flower half of the garden for meditation and relaxation. Then there are small border stones around the vegetable and spice plants on the right half. The two halves of this one garden are separated by a small knee high white picket fence. There has obviously been a lot of thought, time, and energy put not only into the plant layout but also the work and attention to detail. I can't tell what the vegetables popping up are yet, but I did see a sage bush and oregano that must have just been planted. The flower section has an arrangement of different perennials that will all bud at different times of spring and summer creating a beautiful and relaxing environment.
This project is the University of Bristol's award winning annual archaeological excavations at Berkeley Castle aims to build up a detailed picture of the history and archaeology of the castle and the associated settlement of Berkeley.
Dr Stuart Prior, Senior Teaching Fellow in Archaeological Practice and one of the site directors, says: "Our current focus can best be described as ‘Minster, Manor & Town’. By combining the results of detailed archaeological fieldwork with information contained in the castle’s impressive collection of 20,000 historical documents, the project will add greatly to our knowledge and understanding of the early medieval period and the subsequent changes in landscape and society that occurred with the coming of the Normans and the erection of a castle on the former minster site.
Archaeology3Ds role was in the creation of a 3D model that both engaged with the archaeological research and the project. In recent years the business' founder, Alex Birkett, has been teaching techniques of archaeological recording using photographs to create 3D models.

Decommissioning began at Berkeley Power Station in 1989 when Reactor number one was shutdown, making it the first commercial nuclear power station to be decommissioned in the United Kingdom. Berkeley was highly important as the technical laboratories on site supported developments in all the power stations across the country, whilst assuring all nuclear provision was safe and up to an acceptable standard.
Eighteen months ago South Gloucestershire & Stroud College took interest in the site and today a new campus is being built for engineering and information technology students, hinged from the needs of industry. The aim being for the whole site to be eventually turned into a science park.
Photographing Berkeley Nuclear Power Station has allowed me identify and understand the previous uses of each of the buildings contained on the twenty- acre site. Over multiple visits I have been able to develop my approach of illustrating the vacated buildings, showing the locations in which two thousand employees once operated and managed the Power Station.
