The project

Lincoln Cathedral is one of the largest medieval buildings in Western Europe, an impressive example of gothic architecture dating back to the 13th century.

From 2019 to 2020, Crowders Nurseries was part of the exciting Lincoln Cathedral Connected project, which is expected to attract an additional 125,000 visitors to the cathedral and its new visitors’ centre. Lincoln Cathedral Connected aims to improve the cathedral’s setting and visitor experience, offering more engaging and dynamic spaces for a wider number of visitors to enjoy.

The landscaping of the project was managed by Dobsons, a Lincoln-based landscaping company, which aimed to transform the outside space. We supplied all the plants and hedging, including Taxus hedging, which was used as a key feature. This was a great project to be a part of, helping to showcase the premium stock we provide, and our team loved seeing the fantastic transformation.
