Our Lady and St Patrick's School, Dumbarton, West Scotland
An all weather multi use games area was required as part of a £25 million project to build a new three storey, 1000 pupil school in Dumbarton in the west of Scotland. This games area would be used throughout the year for sports like football and hockey, so it needed to avoid standing water after rainfall. Read Case Study
