The terrace: design agreed, construction underway.

The old terrace at the rear was a large space, but it was flat and uninteresting, exposed to the weather and an uninviting place to sit and dine. Our task was to make this key  area comfortable and intimate, whilst enhancing its usefulness and making the most of the fantastic views of the lake in the grounds and of the South Downs beyond.  The photograph shows the setting-out markings on the lawn for the new ponds, terracing and plant beds.
