3 St John's Street

Redesigned and built in 2019, the focus of this compact garden is wildlife. The large pond offers a home to newts, toads and dragonfly larvae. The planting is pollinator friendly showing colour from the first snowdrops to year end. Hedeghogs visit nightly, fence holes allow a highway and feeding stations provide snacks. On warm days this tranquil oasis is alive with bees and butterflies.
