PROJECT DESCRIPTION

A pleached avenue of Ornamental Pears frame the entire space and provides shade over the lawn area during the hot months of Summer. Additional shade and interest are provided either side of the entry portico with mature Magnolia ‘Little Gem’ and clipped Box hedge.

A ‘Haddonstone’ path divides the garden room and leads to a beautifully crafted bronze figurine, finished in a water feature central to the main garden room. Stepping stone paths allow further circulation throughout the lawn area and garden seating is positioned in vantage location to the water feature.
