marefair-park

M-Tec has proudly completed the fabrication and installation of a stunning new Public Art Development at Marefair Heritage Park in Northampton. This exciting project features 16 eye-catching Corten steel structures and two impressive arches, designed to enhance the town’s urban landscape and create a welcoming gateway between Northampton town centre and the train station.

Developed in close collaboration with Northampton Council, Jeakins Weir, and BDP Architects, the project has transformed the area into a vibrant green space that celebrates the town’s heritage while promoting connection and accessibility. The Corten steel elements, known for their distinctive weathering appearance, provide a unique visual character that will continue to evolve over time, blending beautifully with the natural surroundings.

"M-Tec were very thrilled to be involved with this stunning redevelopment project, partnering with Jeakins Weir and BDP to deliver the metalwork. The Corten arches and totems will weather in beautifully as we head into the autumn and winter. We will photograph the project in early spring 2026 and share how the metalwork finish has transformed over this period. We have no doubt it will look fantastic."
