Turning a neglected hundred year old garden around, whilst maintaining its character allowed for it to be re-purposed as a series of outdoor living spaces surrounding the main 1909 heritage home. The driveway was converted into a vegetable garden and the derelict pool area into a low maintenance eco-pool linked to a new covered patio space. Social interaction and outdoor living in previous dead areas of the garden were successfully created with privacy for the various tenants in mind.
The front garden and parking areas were conceived as a series of hedged spaces, with gravel pathways and a typical English style entrance garden in acknowledgement of the manor house’s historical architecture.
