Royal William Yard No2 Residence Garden
Historic Landscape Restoration and Wildlife Garden in Plymouth
The challenge
The garden of the Surgeon Admirals House in the listed 19th Century dockyard landscape of the Royal William Yard was run down and overgrown. The challenge was to provide a dual landscape setting; serving on the one hand, as an amenity and meeting space for the staff of the regeneration agency occupying the building and secondly as a venue for educational nature study for local children working with the agency.
What we did
Mike Westley developed a design which met the above brief as well as respecting the historic setting of the Royal William Yard, and managed the projects implementation.
The result
The garden continues to be a well loved and used space.
