Rockmia

We bought 'Rockmia' the small farm next door in 2007. Since then it has undergone several 

transformations. When we bought it the gardens were very well kept, cottage style.

 The two photos above are what it looked like then. After that the garden suffered some neglect as there was no one living in it full time who cared to garden. 

 In January of 2012 my Mum and Step Dad moved in. Mum is a manic gardener and Carlos an excellent maker-of-things. Together they have started to bring the garden back to a different kind of beautiful. It is a lot more hands off than the cottage garden of before, but in 12 months they have got it looking lickety split!

 Carlos made this balustrading just recently with the old tines from the hay rake. And the old 

sheep yard fence, below, was one of the first things we added to the garden.
