Our house - the garden

Of all the things we transformed within the house, it was the back garden and pond that are our greatest achievement.

 

 

This was the back garden after we'd tidied it up when we moved in.

 

This is what it looks like now.

 

 

 

 

The back left side of the house - I've never seen weeds so tall!

 

After we'd cleared all the weeds away and tidied it up.

 

What it looks like today.

 

Back right side of the house when we moved in.

 

We even found a shed behind all the weeds.

 

 

 

What it looks like today.

 

And then there is the tale of the pond we inherited with the house....a sad little pond, overgrown and neglected.

 

 

 

So Trev made it bigger.....

 

Put in some decking and created Japanese inspired beds.

Designed and installed his own bridge.

 

Carried and carefully positioned the stones.

And created something really beautiful.

 



 

Next came the plants.

 

Replaced the pergola, and painted it.

And there you have it.

 



We finally finished the water feature last year.
