Town Garden

Town Garden, Oakham

Our brief was simple: to create a garden with a strong underlying structure with generous borders for the client to full with flowers plus a space to entertain in the summer.

The rectilinear design included a new fence to unify the disjointed boundaries, expansive flower filled borders linked by a series of gravel and sandstone pathways and a semi-formal gravel garden enclosed by a low box hedge.  The sandstone patio is adjacent to the house and an oak rose pergola adds height to ‘draw’ people down the garden.

Build: Client’s own contractor.

Planting: Emma Scarborough Garden Design Ltd.  April 2016.
