A garden in Oxfordshire has won the Best Sustainable Residential Design Award.
Meadow View Wildlife Garden near Abingdon won the award at the inaugural Sustainability & Biodiversity Awards 2023.
The garden was completed in May 2023 and was designed by landscape studio HollandGreen.
It includes meandering paths, a wildlife pond and a woodland with remnants of a gothic folly.
More information about the garden can be found on the HollandGreen website.
The aim of the design was to prioritise nature throughout and work with, and enhance, the existing site and its ecosystem, rather than creating an unsustainable environment.
No waste was taken way from the site, instead, it was reused in the project.
HollandGreen said: "Not only is the space a haven for nature, but it's also become a beautiful and tranquil garden allowing our clients and their families and friends to reconnect to the natural world."
