Hi Garry some folk mix food plants with ornamentals,
do you remember Geoff Hamilton(, he died some years ago ) he was a great one for doing that, not too far from you near to Rutland Water are the gardens he created and are open to the public run by his son.....you may find a website.
Also if you scroll to the bottom of the page and choose R you,ll see raised veg beds as a category, lots of ideas there too
