The Garden Of Madge and John Pelling
Set on Dash End Lane, the lush flower beds of the front garden give a clue to the carefully crafted garden behind. The garden is entered through an extended pergola which offers shade to a terrace area with the aid of a covering of Wisteria. Beyond this a curving lawn plays host to examples of modern sculpture as they flow between wide well planted boarders, a shaded wildlife pond and green garden making the most of the structural beauty of ferns. The path ends at a fruit and veg area that looks likely to provide an excellent harvest later in the year. A particular point of interest was a pane of dycromic glass set in one of the flower beds. The effect of this glass is to change the colour of anything seen through it dependant on the angle of the viewer to the glass. This was put to great effect set among an explosion of low white flowers.
