This small, exuberantly planted garden is designed to intrigue and provide year-round interest. It rises quite steeply on three levels, from a lower patio area with acers and a rose-covered pergola, to a spacious upper terrace, with woodland planting in both damp and dry shade.
During lockdown, a new project was begun, to ‘re-wild’ the upper part of the garden, replacing the upper terrace with an extended woodland area and a miniature wildflower meadow.
