About 14c Fieldgate Lane

The garden reflects the style and enthusiasm of the owner, who has lived there since 2003. During that time it has been transformed, but only gradually. One senses a delight in plants, especially herbaceous plants, and also in birds and wildlife with water features and bird feeders.

The entrance is down a narrow, shaded path with dense plantings and climbers. Turning left to enter at the rear of the garden where there is a Summer House and a raised shady planting area. The first impression is of the dense array of planting. It is a garden of rooms which reveal themselves slowly. There is a circular paved area and nearby an arch leading to the house, with a patio and seasonal pots. The densely planted pond with a wooden bridge over leads to another seating area which catches sun at the end of the day. Japanese maples grow everywhere. A rear path leads the visitor into a shady and seemingly unpromising area by the rear hedge, but various shrubs seem to enjoy these conditions, including leycesteria formosa. and hydrangeas.
