garden design and landscaping in Corsham

Considered gardens in Corsham

Corsham is Bath-stone country, the honey-coloured town of Corsham Court and the old quarry mines, close to home and steeped in stone. We design and build design-led gardens here: full garden design and build, stone terracing and walling, ponds and water features, and outdoor living, worked to suit the Bath-stone character of the place.

The ground around Corsham

Corsham sits on Bath oolitic limestone, the same fine stone that built the town and Bath beyond it. The soil is thin, free-draining and alkaline, suiting drought-tolerant planting and good soil preparation, and the local stone is central to the look. Stone terracing, retaining and walling in matched Bath stone is some of the most fitting work we do here, keeping gardens in keeping with the architecture.

In keeping with the stone

The properties are period Bath stone, much within the conservation area, where taste and restraint matter. We work in matched local stone and quality materials to a design-led standard, with the detailing done properly, so new work sits with the old.

Planning in Corsham

Corsham has a substantial conservation area and listed stock, so the rules on materials and frontages tighten. We tell you what applies to your property before any work, and point you to Wiltshire Council where a check or application is needed. Guidance from experience, not a substitute for the council's decision.
