Project Description:

 

 

An existing brick built cow shed used for general storage was to be converted into a new home using as much of the original building as possible. The building was carefully renovated and converted, however, Mr. and Mrs. Hopkins required a private garden space that was screened from the remainder of the farm.

 

It was requested that the garden should be designed and built in an English Country Garden style and to be in keeping with the gardens and countryside of the nearby buildings a lawn was required along with clipped box hedging a faux lead water feature was positioned opposite one set of doors whilst a pergola and bench was placed opposite the kitchen doors.

 

No grasses were to be incorporated in the planting scheme but roses, lavender, clipped bay trees, and ferns were permitted.
