Green roofs
Green roofs maximise the use of otherwise wasted roof space.
Establishing plants on a roof can bring many benefits:
- improved views
- new open space
- a home for nature
- absorbing rainfall and reducing the burden on waste water infrastructure
- making rooms below cooler and more comfortable
There are many types of green roof – from parks and gardens to private terraces, meadows or other wildlife habitats.
