(Opened by HM The Queen, July 2002)
Part of a large public garden, this space is designed primarily for high summer interest.

From one entrance, the visitor is presented with a formal vista, terminating at the steel water sculpture. In contrast, the approach from the woodland garden is half hidden by hedges, with views gradually unfolding.

Materials were chosen to complement the pastel shades of herbaceous plantings, which are seen against a background of dark yew and are viewable from all directions, building up deep layers of colour. (As the new hedging grows, the enclosure intended in the design will be fully achieved.)
