Laird Bailey excels in garden design Cotswolds, and our Lechlade Walled Garden project showcases this expertise. Set within a Grade II listed townhouse in the Lechlade Conservation Area, this landscape design blends Italian and Cotswolds inspiration, creating a historically sensitive success. Featured in Topiaris and Homes & Antiques magazine, this project reflects our commitment to cottage gardens Cotswolds and sustainable landscaping, complementing our work in Gloucestershire and Somerset.

The Lechlade Walled Garden transforms a historic monastic garden at a Grade II listed property into a series of enchanting garden designs. Our landscape architects in Cotswolds crafted a sequential journey through interconnected gardens, each linked by modern themes of lush ferns and evergreen topiary. The first garden was completed in spring 2021, with further phases finished by summer 2022, enhancing the site’s heritage and biodiversity.

Our landscape design prioritised historical sensitivity:

• Garden Design Cotswolds: Drew on Italian formality and Cotswolds cottage garden aesthetics, using clipped topiary and native plants.
• Historically Sensitive Design: Preserved the monastic garden’s legacy, ensuring compliance with conservation area standards.
• Planting Design: Incorporated disease resistant planting with ferns and evergreens to support biodiversity enhancement.
• Sustainable Landscaping: Used eco-friendly materials and climate change adaptation techniques to ensure longevity.

The Lechlade Walled Garden is a celebrated cottage garden Cotswolds, lauded in Topiaries for its blend of heritage and modernity. It enhances local ecology and sets a benchmark for landscape design services UK, akin to our Slad Valley project in Gloucestershire.
