Courtyard Garden
A copper and glass extension to this 18th Century farmhouse left the courtyard garden needing to bridge the gap between the modern extension and the rest of the garden. The brief was to create a space that looked beautiful year-round since it would always be on display from the new kitchen.
Formal domes of evergreen yew were interspersed with wispy grasses complimented by pops of colour throughout the year from a selection of  low maintenance perennials and bulbs suited to this fairly dry and shady area.
A re-purposed copper cheese vat provided a wonderful focal point as a water feature.
