In 2012 I looked at Richard and Emily Harris’s garden plot in Oxfordshire.
This village-edge site had a hard tennis court on it, tucked behind some planting, and appeared to have great potential for the type of low-profile, contemporary design that Richard and Emily were looking for.
But did the couple secure planning permission on this garden plot? Read on…
The location
The couple’s existing house is situated at the western end of their plot, which sits immediately behind properties fronting one of the village streets.
There’s a private drive to it between existing houses, which also serves another house farther to the west. Their garden extends some 80 metres east from the house and is a long, rectangular shape about 25 metres wide.
The tennis court sits up the eastern end, and is visually separated from the house by an evergreen hedge and mature tree.
The north boundary of the plot is a tall evergreen hedge, running along the rear of the adjoining gardens.
