The initial site was a very scrubby piece of land that had been neglected after the completion of the new house. We were asked to design a rockery garden to complement the new pond.

Given that there was very little slope to work with the design had to work extremely hard to give the impression of a rockery. Moreover, bringing the various parts of the garden together proved to be challenging. A combination of heavy material and planting use around a strong structural identity gives the garden cohesion. The results are very pleasing.
