West Boldon Lodge is the only facility of its kind for schools and the wider community in South Tyneside. Our new Centre, kindly constructed by National Grid, reopened in August 2010. This new Centre is an Erlund House log cabin, which has been constructed from high quality Northern Pine logs grown in Finland. The Centre is insulated using a natural cellulose fibre insulation, made from recycled paper. The building also incorporates solar panels for heating water and wood burning stoves as supplementary heating.
The Centre is located within 13 hectares of land, which comprises open water, wet and dry meadows, grassland, woodland, coppiced willow areas and scrub woodland. One area of the site is known as Mount Pleasant Marsh Local Wildlife Site and contains locally rare species of Orchid and examples of ancient ridge and furrow meadow. The site is actively managed using traditional conservation techniques.
