This tall Victorian house in Ealing opens up into a courtyard with steps up into the main part of the garden. Although the clients had some nice plants, especially roses that could be used in the new garden, the garden lacked structure and was a bit random, and a shed and trellis took up too much room in the top sunny corner. This was moved and screened by new trellis, freeing up some valuable space to get the evening sun. The courtyard was paved with pattered porcelain, retaining the original walls and steps, and the main garden was paved with Jura Beige limestone. Beige clay pavers were used in the side alley and these extend into the garden for continuity. The garden also needed to include an outdoor shower, with some lovely glazed tiles for the support stand. Jasmine has been planted along the back fence, to create a green backgrop to the garden.
