The brief was tongue-in-cheek: 'a little bit Hampton Court', so we created a smart, semi-formal garden with a palette of white and green. The new tiled path looks fabulous with a new bullnose sandstone front step.

​Thoughtful planting combines topiary with the freeform of Hydrangeas. A Tree Fern and a white Cherry tree give structure without looking too stern for a family house. The hand-built bin-store has a sedum roof. A new front wall with mortar to match the house is finished with a dark-grey gate and railings, a touch of class.
