The Clocktower - Connaught Gardens

Connaught Gardens in Sidmouth receives thousands of visitors each year, with the clocktower garden arguable being the most prominent of Connaught's walled gardens. The project required a sympathetic approach which retained and worked with the grade II listed structures. Rectilinear forms and symmetry of the hard landscape and planting areas allow a more naturalistic planting style, which creates a impactful juxtaposition. Emphasis on contrasting textures and structures, rather than only flower colour, creates a dynamic and immersive experience throughout the entire year. This project was undertaken whilst employed by East Devon District Council.
