Compact gravel surfaces for Georgian terraces and city mews
Cork's Georgian terraces and mews often hide small courtyards with poor drainage and limited planting depth. Our gravel garden package transforms these spaces with permeable surfaces, herb borders, and rain-aware level changes.
We specify limestone or self-binding gravel, edged with steel or stone, with thyme, sage, and lavender borders that tolerate Cork's wet winters. Seating zones are positioned on slightly raised levels so they stay dry after Atlantic downpours.
Limestone chip or self-binding gravel that allows water through while providing a clean, usable surface year-round.
Subtle level changes channel runoff away from door thresholds and seating areas during heavy winter rain.
Low-maintenance thyme, sage, and lavender along edges—fragrant, hardy, and suited to Cork's mild climate.
Most courtyard projects start with a €140 site walk to assess levels and light. We then deliver a focused gravel garden plan within three weeks.
