Back in 2018 we were invited to create The Ultimate Sand Castle for English Heritage in the grounds of Dover Castle. Fast forward a few years to 2023 we found ourselves working with English Heritage again, this time to run a two day pop up Sand Sculpture workshop in the grounds of Leeds Castle.

We set up in the Children’s zone where they had a ‘pop up beach’ for summer.
After saying yes to the job, Peter was shocked to hear that Leeds Castle was not in Leeds! 200 miles later, in a land far from Yorkshire; Peter was shooting down Claire’s alien with his spaceman’s raygun.

They made time for the kids too, who enjoyed creating the Loch Ness Monsters and unicorns to name but a few. The first day the theme was Sea creatures, and on the second; Outer Space.

It was a beautiful sunny day, everyone got to enjoy the spectacular Leeds Castle from a distance whilst working next to the maze.
