It’s nearly the end of the season for Islanders James Bradley from Ventnor and Angela Guille from Cowes who have been working together over the winter to make Living Willow Domes.



They weave specially grown three year old 'Viminalis' willow rods, to form structures.  As spring moves in, they are planning workshops in building with cob, which is a mixture of clay, sand, straw and water.
