About 87 Todd Lane North

The property is an old Station Master’s house adjacent to the disused Lostock Junction on the Preston to Blackburn railway line which now forms part of a cycle way network being part of South Ribble’s Central Park.
The garden also contains wildlife borders, bird & bat boxes and hedgehog homes. The garden is approximately 1 acre, is south facing and has many mature trees. The main lawned area uses the borrowed landscape to create an open aspect and uses several statues and ornamental urns to create added interest. Don’t forget to say hello to Maximus our roman centurion! Conversely the ying-yang garden uses the borrowed landscape to help emphasise the enclosed woodland area. Enjoy the tranquility, meander down its windy path pass the foxglove forest to the sound of chimes. At the bottom is a willow den. Through another gate and willow tunnel you will then find a small child’s play area in a further woodland area.
There are plentiful areas to sit and rest. A number of plants have been propagated which will be for sale. A selection of home-made cakes & teas will also be available.
