Holiday Cottage in Hay on Wye

A difficult sloping site was made useable by the introduction of a retaining wall to level the ground giving an area for a 
patio, paths and herbaceous borders edged with box hedging. The dry stone wall was build of local stone using an
informal 'rubble' coursing construction.

                

   Swan Lane First School - Evesham

    The first photo below shows a before shot of the school field at Swan Lane First School in Evesham before work was started on a new play area for the children - a story telling circle with a giant chair, a wooden castle, outdoor theatre, steel wigwams and an out door class room.

Pollard Horticulture has just finished work at a large house outside Evesham on a programme of improvements in the garden. 

 A new dry-stone wall has replaced the old retaining wall and an avenue of Betula utilis var. jacquemontii (Himalayan White Birch) has been planted down either side of the drive.

A wasted and overgrown area of the garden has been renovated with a small retaining wall which now contains a acid bed for Rhododendrons and Camellias and other acid loving plants.

The end of the main lawn lacked a focal point and had been overtaken by a Juniper hedge.

The old hedge was removed and new planting added either side of a new flight of steps which now lead up onto the top gravel path around the garden.

A selection of specimen Trees were planted in the Orchard to form a small Arboretum.
