Margery Street Estate

At very busy times with a lot of people trying to read the blog, it can take a while for images to load – they can remain grey. If this occurs, please try again later or make sure you are on a very fast broadband connection! Apologies if this is happening today.

I went for a little walk up to Amwell Street this evening. What was this vision of English country house planting on the corner of Lloyd Baker Street and Farringdon Road?

Not the double borders from Arley Hall or Rodmarton Manor, although the planting is just as beautiful. No, it’s the garden at the corner of Margery Street Estate. Total genius, I don’t know who has made this garden or how – but it’s completely amazing. Excuse the bad photos, taken on my mobile phone… and go and have a look if you can.
