It was a real honour to play a small part of the team who brought the Alan Partridge Sound Bath Garden to reality. The garden was designed by Joe and Laura Carey, constructed by Ben Wiggins and his team at Landesigns, and was by sponsored by Audible. They have been awarded a Gold Medal for this garden, at the 2025 RHS Hampton Court Palace Garden Festival.

If anyone should be visiting today please do come along and say hello! I would love to chat with you and answer any questions you may have on garden and landscape lighting.
