Little Chalfont Family Garden - Entrance gates and walling
The original gates were shabby and lightweight, and not in the right place. We helped the homeowner apply for planning permission to move the driveway entrance so that parking is in a less obtrusive place, and replaced the gates with automated hardwood curved gates set into impressive brick columns. Brick walls are softened with flint panels at the front entrance, tying into the vernacular of the Chilterns.
The formerly plain expanse of lawn which ran from the driveway to the house has been swapped for a lush green entrance garden, with the focus on textures and shapes rather than high colour contrast, for year round appeal.
