The Winning Designs

Yew-hedged garden with a semi-circular end. The 
standard Apple-trees to the north of this little spot form 
a good screen between the pleasure garden and the 
kitchen garden, and also shut off the business corner 
of the garden devoted to greenhouse and potting-shed. 
The Mountain Ash trees between the main entrance 
from the road and the trades entrance would also form 
a satisfactory screen, and the servants’ little garden is 
pleasantly disposed to give an outlook from the kitchen 
window. The entrance court is neatly managed, with 
a Rose garden to the north-west of it and a sundial and 
seat on the axial line of the entrance door of the house. 
The south corner is also well contrived, and the chief 
defect of the scheme is the provision of the long ser- 
vice path along the south-east boundary which borders 
on a road. This would give to the passer-by an 
unattractive impression of the whole garden, and would 
be uninteresting from within.

A. Troyte Griffith. The little hedged entrance court 
is distinctly successful, with its trees and spring garden 
on the west side. The tennis lawn is placed north and 
south, and the south angle of the site is well employed 
as a little pool garden where water plants could seek 
hospitality. The best feature of the scheme is the 
very charming view which can be got from the paved 
space on the west side of the house looking through 
Yew hedges southwards under the pergola to the 
octagonal garden-house. The terrace on the south 
side of the house with its semi-circular treatment is a 
good feature, but Mr. Griffith has rather tripped over
