Cannon Hill Park - Sousse and Bardo Memorial - BALI National Landscape Awards 2019
Award: BALI National Landscape Award and BALI Special Award Outstanding Memorial
Category: Hard Landscaping Construction (Non-Domestic) – Under 500K and Outstanding Memorial
The Sousse and Bardo Memorial is dedicated to the 31 British Nationals murdered in the 2015 terrorist attacks in Tunisia and all those directly affected by the atrocity. A sculpture, created from 31 individual stainless steel tubes and entitled ‘Infinite Wave’ is at the memorial’s centre and the surrounding stone amphitheatre creates a beautiful, serene and contemplative space where the victims’ loved ones and friends can spend time. We worked closely with the steel fabricators and other suppliers managing the entire project and setting out and installing the memorial’s foundations and surrounding granite blockwork with care and precision.
“From the outset of this highly emotive
project, the contractor worked
professionally and sensitively with all
stakeholders to deliver a beautiful and
fitting memorial that will undoubtedly
provide solace for those affected by this
terrible atrocity.”
