Moving forward – removal of footings

Many years ago, the rear garden was used by a wonderful nursery that filled the exterior with outdoor play equipment. Sadly, after they left the footings remained which meant an uneven surface and created trip hazards everywhere! The landscapers have now started removing these to ensure the ground can be levelled and safe for all.

The landscaping has begun in the rear garden!

So far all the bark and sleepers have been removed and what a difference this has made.

Looking forward to a new view!

We can’t wait to be able to stand in this spot in 24 months and see something completely different. What? We don’t know yet, which makes it all the more exciting!

Our big tree has had a trim!

Trimming for tree health is often referred to as pruning, and it involves removing branches that are diseased, infested or interfering with healthy growth. Regular trimming keeps trees strong, creates a healthier structure and reduces the need for future corrective pruning.

Garden Update!

Our garden project was halted due to the COVID19 pandemic and after a few months the ivy took over! With the help of some energetic volunteers, and following the appropriate social distancing guidelines we’ve cleared it all away.

We hope to start the garden project soon turning this wasteland into the community garden it deserves to be.

Our rear garden being used as a messy play zone!

Clearing the weeds

We’ve dug out all the weeds and covered the area until we can put in some new shrubs!

Hargrave Hall Garden will be available for daytime only private hire from Spring 2021!
