Old Rectory, Gloucestershire

The design and implementation of an extensive replanting project in a mature garden to improve biodiversity and wildlife habitats. Planting was also chosen to make the garden as a whole more resilient to the changing local climate where increasingly wet winters and hot dry summers on thin clay soils led to serious waterlogging and baking of the soil.
