    The hum of bees is the voice of the garden


    Type: Water feature
    Area: Stroud, Gloucestershire
    The garden:
    A plain grass slope needed some inspiration to entice wildlife and increase biodiversity, for the clients to enjoy. Stone steps were created to walk through the plants and cascade down to a natural wildlife pool.

    The Earth has music for those that listen

    The brief:
    To transform the unused sloped area into a haven for wildlife with water.

    In times of crisis the natural world is a source of joy and solace. It produces the comfort that can come from nothing else.

    Sir David Attenborough
    The design:
    A beautiful pool was made of Cotswold stone walls to allow seating at the edges to enjoy the wildlife within the pond at eye level. A mass of naturalistic planting was designed to envelope this pool to attract insects and create a colourful surround. The pool is a humming life source of dragonflies, damselflies, bees, wasps, butterflies, frogs newts, water boatmen and so much more. Birds and other vast varieties of wildlife visit this little oasis. A stone pathway allows an immersive feel to walk up into the surrounding garden and gives alternative views of the space.
