“No marking, I can’t wait.”
Lincoln’s School of Landscape Architecture is losing two of its longest serving champions, as Mike Barthelmeh and Simon Swaffield retire after thirty-plus years shaping landscape architects of the future.
Mike began at Lincoln (then College) as an eager student in 1968, doing a four year horticultural science degree. Then in 1972 he began a diploma in landscape architecture, part of the third intake at the new School of Landscape Architecture, along with the likes of Di Menzies, Peter Rough and Di Lucas. “Crikey, yeah, in those days it was sort of pieces of slate and chisels,” he laughs. “There were eight of us in that first year. We were in little prefab buildings beside the swimming pool about where the school is located now.”
