Hilltop Garden

Design Brief

A large property in Lenham commanded magnificent views over Kent and thus presented a challenge with a very exposed location. The planting needed to be able to withstand the elements whilst providing seasonal variation without obstructing the view. The paving materials were required to be sympathetic with the house materials.
