About me

We live in the lovely Saxon hilltop town of Shaftesbury in North Dorset. The garden is small, about 10 x 11 metres and designed by me as a modern Courtyard. Lots of pots and trees in pots. The front is more traditional, with a lawn, hedge and flower borders. South of England climate but with 130m above sea level winds. Stourhead is my local NT property. Bliss!
