Large Sloped Garden, Wrotham, Kent

A large, steeply sloping plot that was hard to use and harder to plant. We terraced it into a sequence of usable levels, held with raised beds and retaining walls, then planted boldly to settle the structure into the hillside.

What was an awkward bank now reads as a series of garden rooms, each with its own outlook over the valley.
