Garon Castle Adventures
LED Quartz bollards installed at adventure golf course
Southend: October 2019
Challenge
Opened in June 2019, Garon Castle Adventures is Southend’s latest adventure golf experience and already looks set to become a hugely popular destination for children and adults alike.
A lighting solution was needed which enabled visitors to play the adventure golf course in the evenings without detracting from the overall aesthetics of the course and its surroundings.
Solution
Abacus supplied and installed Quartz® LED bollards on the adventure golf course. With the bollard shaft made from tough CHS tubing and the LEDs protected behind a polycarbonate outer cylinder, there is no risk of damage from stray golf balls.
The internal louvre design of the bollard gives a controlled light output. This increases efficiency and effectively removes any upward light, overspill or glare.
With three beam patterns available; Asymmetric, Symmetric and Axial, the complex layout of the golf course could be lit in a very efficient manner.

The Quartz® LED Bollard optics last for over 50,000 hours use, which is around four times longer than conventional HID lamps. Should a bollard need a head replacement, this can be carried out easily with the bollard in situ as the head is secured to the shaft with three anti-tamper screws. This significantly reduces maintenance and replacement costs, ideal for a site like Garon Castle Adventures.
