Several studies were carried out last year including the peer review of the landscape master plan prepared by M Shaheer. A detailed analysis was also carried out to study the slope analysis, existing vegetation, contours and elevation and existing drainage of the site. It was agreed that the landscape works would be undertaken together with conservation works in 3 phases.
The discovery of the enclosure wall around the tombs of Sultan Quli further helped in appropriate development of the landscape design for the south west corner. The levels of the area within the enclosure and outside were decided based on the trial trenching made adjacent to the plinth wall of the monuments looking for the dressing on the stones which would have originally been exposed.
