05 – Ceredwyn Jones & Lesley Abell

9a Epworth Avenue, Epsom

No big bang in this upstairs downstairs garden. Just a continuing green evolution.

Upstairs places for contemplation, floral display and a minimalist courtyard. Downstairs vege production for the kitchen and fragrant plants.

 ”Our home is a converted factory and the downstairs vege garden and upstairs floral garden wrap around the house. Yes you can walk through part of the house to reach the upstairs garden to view the sunken courtyard.  There is a number of places for you to sit and pause while you enjoy the garden spaces created.

Being a small site, developing a vegetable garden has been a challange. There is conflict for space between vegetables and flowers, however we do harvest an amazing amount and this year we have been able to include veges in pots down the drive, this being the only part of the garden that gets full sun all day. We have had a great tomato crop from there.”
