Man Builds Lego Lake District Model

Ask a Question

I have just seen this article in the BBC about a 100 sq ft (9.2 sq m) model, estimated to be made of 200,000 pieces of Lego. The model now spans 60 boards that are positioned side-by-side.

Mr Tordoff started building the Lego model during the pandemic with the aim of recreating Buttermere, his favourite spot in the Lake District.

However, he continued adding to the landscape because he said he found it relaxing.

Due to its size, Mr Tordoff had never seen it all together before the exhibition in Belper.

I wished I lived closer as I would definately, go and see this. Are you a fan of Lego ?

A waste of his valuable time and lego. Seeing the photograph is enough for me.

jam45 I don't think the static photo does it justice, the video shows how impressive it is, if I lived nearer I would definitely go to see it 🙂

blacklabrador I think he is hoping to expand the landscape and has set up a go fund me page for materials.

beccatavender I wonder where he'll stop then. I think he's going to need a bigger shed/spare room.
