Designed and built in Summer 2005 this exposed cottage garden benefited from high dry stone boundary walls and shelter belt planting affording the garden an enclosed sheltered feel. It incorporated a small flagged area and a neglected exposed natural spring which gave the garden an extra dynamic. A raised overgrown terrace to the side of the s pring at the rear of the garden required considerable renovation. The garden including a vegetable plot had been previously neglected and was disorganised, tired and very overgrown.

The client brief was to design a garden that “must respect its surroundings; be traditional, to fit the setting, but have a contemporary twist and be relatively low maintenance.”
