Traditional materials in small village property |
|
Tranquil garden with beautiful water feature |
|
A Pathway to our clients office at the end of this garden was our brief. We also constructed a small terrace for eating out in the evening sun. |
|
This gravel garden transformed the front of this period property. |
|
This large herb garden was created for our client in an unused area outside their newly built kitchen extension. |
|
This large gravel driveway with brick edging, completed the front of this new build property. |
|
Quarried Yorkstone and traditional edging bricks were the materials of choice in this formal design. Planting will be completed in the autumn. |
|
New build, difficult shape |
|
This garden was a difficult shape, with the ground sloping down towards a point were two boundary walls meet. A seating area was created in this part of the garden to take advantage of the evening sun, with dense planting behind to screen off the point. Seperate areas were created within the garden, with split level lawns, a parterre and a shadey woodland area to the side of the property. |
|
This project involved extending the driveway to give the clients more space for vehicles. Constructing low retaining walls to deal with the level changes was necessary. Reclaimed sleepers were used for the walls to tie in with the nearby barn. The planting scheme softens the hard landscping, and links the new work with the rest of the garden. |
|
A mixture of mostly native trees and shrubs with winding pathways were used to create this woodland are, in this large garden. Pictures show first full seasone, with plants establishing quickly and putting on impressive growth. |

Gardens in prestigous developement |
|
In this large project we designed and built six different gardens for the houses within the developement. Each garden had a unique design. Materials and details were chosen to compliment the style of the houses, such as the tile creasings used for the step risers. The same sandstone was used in each garden to keep continuity throughout the site, however individual planting schemes were designed for each home. |
|
Formal Courtyard & Country Garden |
|
The majority of the work in this garden, was in an enclosed area between the house and the office. This was transformed into a courtyard garden with a formal design. The main structural planting will be completed later in the year. Other areas of the project included extending the driveway and transforming the front of the property. We also installed a beautiful bridge over the pond to the large lawn, with york stone steps leading down to the bridge at both ends. |

Medium size garden at new build property |
|
The key to this garden was rearranging the levels to make the space work for the client. We changed a sloping garden into two seperate levels and gave all year round interest with some very structural planting. |
|
This enclosed area within a large garden gave the opportunity to create an area to entertain and relax in. Surrounding the lawn there are large herbaceous borders (not yet developed). We pleached Whitebeam trees which will soon provide a screen from the indoor swimming pool which runs along one side. |

Formal design in country garden |
|
This bare area of garden, where a swimming pool used to be situated, was replaced with a chequered garden using squares of lawn, granite and underplanted Acer 'Globsum'. |
|
This tiny space was transformed to provide outdoor space for entertaining. The use of small sandstone setts gives detail to the hard landscaping and the chosen plants soon covered and screened the surrounding walls and fence, giving structure in the winter and scent and colour in the spring and summer. |
|
In this garden the majority of the work was done around the house to soften the overall look of the property and to also make mainteance easier. The main part of the garden was kept very simple in order to make the most of the fantastic views over nearby fields and woodland. Along the driveway we used pleached Hornbeams, underplanted with lavender to provide interest and structure to the entrance and also to screen off a nearby house. |
|
One of the keys to the design and build of this garden was to disguise the seven different manholes within the plot. |
