1 Tucker Close

We have a small walled town garden, designed and planted by us, on a fairly new estate. An unexpected design, so visitors tell us, with its wide beds, exuberant planting and small cauldron pond. Everything is planted with wildlife in mind. Despite it being only four years old, it looks mature and abundant, filled with herbaceous borders, fruit trees, decking, pond and slate rather than grass.

About 1 Tucker Close

We have a small walled town garden, designed and planted by us, on a fairly new estate. An unexpected design, so visitors tell us, with its wide beds, exuberant planting and small cauldron pond. Everything is planted with wildlife in mind. Despite it being only four years old, it looks mature and abundant, filled with herbaceous borders, fruit trees, decking, pond and slate rather than grass.

A colourfull and exuberant town garden. Imaginative treatment of a standard small town estate garden, which brings nature into a built landscape. A haven both for the owners as well as birds, insects and frogs.
