Description:
This charming residential garden sits opposite the imposing Ridgmount Mansions, a Victorian-era apartment building.
Stretching from Chenies Street to Torrington Place, the garden's path leads alongside a series of miniature lawns interspersed by shrubby borders. The garden has benefited in recent years from a planting programme, which includes a new mixed herbaceous border and a woodland glade area. There are more pockets of herbaceous planting this year, including a new sunny border by the Chenies Street section. At either end of the garden sit ornamental birdbaths offset by lavender and wisteria. This garden is a rare treasure.
