PROJECT UPDATE: Sheffield Garden Dry Stone Wall

On schedule for a March finish, this Sheffield private rear garden continues to take shape. Impressive both for its dry stone wall construction and its careful consideration of levels, the team continue to excel in social conditions that are difficult, but not impossible, keeping clean and safe for client and colleagues.

Soft Landscaping

Once the dry stone wall is complete, the J Paxman Landscapes team will set to the soft landscaping, planting ornamental shrubs, trees and low level plants.
