Traditional Cottage Garden, Billericay Essex

This was a large project and a real challenge as it was so overgrown; involving a huge amount of earth moving, pond filling, retaining walls and unknowns. Cube 1994 were called in after a recommendation. The brief was to come up with a solution to create more space for their young family and complement the listed building. A bespoke Oak fort, acted as a supporting wall to the higher ground. The fort was one of the main focal points from the house into the garden. A sunken trampoline was also included and a slide, creating a multi functional play area with a dual purpose of retaining the embankment. A bespoke log store created a feature wall in the patio area and the cottage theme continued to the front, with a white picket fence and cottage style planting. The final result was a great success; the garden became a child-friendly place, in keeping with the style of the home. Cube1994 provided a full landscape design and build service.
