Featured Shoot – Silwood Campus

Exploring the Imperial campuses

Each of the nine Imperial campuses have their own personality, but the one that resonates with me the most is Silwood Park.

An Ecology student examines plants in the greenhouses at Silwood Park. Silwood Park is located 25 miles west of central London in the village of Sunninghill, near Ascot. A global centre for research and teaching in ecology, evolution, and conservation, the campus is set in 100 hectares of parkland where long-term ecological field experiments are conducted. Silwood Park is beautiful and has a the greatest feeling of space of all the campuses.
