BRIARDENE , 9 STURT ROAD

Owners - Eric and Christine Pain

"Briardene" is a semi-detached Victorian cottage that we have lived in for 3½ years. The previous owners were not gardeners, so we had to clear a derelict site from scratch- so much fun as well as hard work. We have tried to keep the cottage garden feel, but with a number of "arty" inclusions. We try to be as organic as possible and constantly move things around and experiment. Latest tryout is vegetable gardening in tubs.
