A design related to features of the house
The plan involved gorgeous round brick-pathways, bordered garden beds, trees and an archway. The inspiration for the brick pathway came from the arches above the windows of the house. We used reclaimed brick for the pathways to give a traditional feel to the garden and link it to the house.
Using medicinal herb planting
Pleached Hornbeam, were used to create an intimate seating area and create a screen. They are very tolerant of pruning, which makes them ideal for this purpose. Boasting a traditional ‘herb wheel’ we planted lovage, winter savoury and marsh-mallow, in keeping with tradition by using medicinal herbs.
