This garden design project involved a complete redesign of a medium sized rural garden in Hampshire with lovely open views to the rear.
The clients needed a new terrace and planting layout around the house to complement their new modern extension.
“Plant here, for other eyes that kingly tree, Whose reign we shall not see. Choose well that spot, that other eyes may bless, its natural loveliness”. Alfred Noyes, poet (1880-1958)
This Hampshire Georgian house was in a great setting with open views and a large area of lawn to the rear, but there was no existing garden as such due to foraging deer frustrating all previous attempts at planting.
It may be necessary to undertake a survey of existing trees to assess their health, vigour and condition and recommend any maintenance or remedial work needed. This is particularly helpful in Conservation Areas where Tree Protection Orders apply.
