For over a hundred years, Roker Pier & Lighthouse has protected the entrance into the city of Sunderland’s harbour. As part of the Pier’s refurbishment, we were selected by Hall Construction Services Ltd to supply specially manufactured pieces for a new building at the entrance to the tunnel that provides safe access under the Pier to the lighthouse for visitors during bad weather.

According to Tim Evans, director of bespoke products at Poundfield Precast, “we were approached by Hall Construction Services Ltd towards the end of last year. Since then we have been working purposefully to convert the architects’ and engineers’ drawings into a factory construction issue format that would ensure the parts made all fitted together to complete the building.

“It was like a 3-D jigsaw and we had to be absolutely precise with our measurements down to the nearest millimetre. Once approved, we then only had three weeks in which to produce the parts and get them onto the Pier for installation. I’m pleased to say every piece fitted perfectly and the entrance to the tunnel is ready for glazing and cladding work to begin.”

Our experienced sales team is always on hand to help and advise you on the features and benefits of all of our retaining wall products and would be more than happy to help you discuss the wide variety of options on offer.
