An amphitheatre for outdoor performance with a curved boulder wall, a Celtic knot made of brass embedded in the stage floor symbolic of strength and the a family unit, Mother, Father Child. Jungle planting flanks the reading corner. Giant wild cat paws prints are pushed into the path to delight... has the Gruffalo been?
A brass 2D sculpture is set into the path denoting mending the earth. A low gabion wall encircles an area of mud for digging with a bucket of little spades and for making mud angels. Roman replica coins and keys are embedded in the path with boulders set out like roman ruins. “teeth ‘ like stones are laid on path edges to look like a giant zip. Chickens roam free and add to the charm of the garden.
