I first came to Burnham Beeches as a child and I've never forgotten it. Now it's the site of Outdoor Culture's biggest project to date, completed on 27 March 2009 just before my company's first birthday: six permanent sculptures, one temporary installation, one poem, six episodes of audio guide, made by four artists and sixty children.
The artists were asked to make work that reflects the spirit of this ancient woodland; to create tactile interest; to sculpt on a human scale; to bring a focus to specific sites without competing with their existing beauty.
There are lots more images on my website at http://www.outdoorculture.com/.
To find Burnham Beeches, go to http://www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/burnham . From there you can also download Duncan McAfee's sonic art and the audio guide he made with the Year 6 pupils of Farnham Common Junior School.
Enjoy!
