The Homestead, Bedford Crescent

Owners - Paul and Helen Prescott

And we're back again for the 4th time. Over the winter of 20/21 we lost one of our lovely Laburnum trees and last year's drought killed the Eucalyptus and a Spotty Laurel. However, the new Sambucus which was added to the rear part of the garden two years ago has survived and is making steady progress.

The back garden is grassed and edged mainly by shrubs. In the middle of the grass we also have a heather bed, a pond and a bed with mixed planting. Behind the garage is a bramble area for blackberries, a vegetable plot and fruit. Some years we have hazelnuts too, but the squirrels often get to them first
