Clever design has incorporated a shed, a patio, a timber path, a wooden deck and a variety of seating options whilst creating plenty of space for plants. The planting gets more reed-like as you approach the riverside and frames the view of the river without closing in the space.

Planting surrounding wooden path leading to riverside deck.

The patio is an intricate mix of reclaimed pavers, bricks & paments with a band of local flint cobbles.

The table and benches have been created by Miles Garden Design from timber from a local reclaim yard.
