Small Town Gardens

Fri 21 Nov, 8:00 pm - 8:30 pm  30mins

By cunning use of materials teamed with planting to melt the stoniest of hearts, Small Town Gardens addresses problems specific to confined areas.

Presenter James Alexander-Sinclair, was promoted from his role of designer in last year's series. With his signature hat and way with words, he follows the journey of each garden from design to completion.

Nick Robinson and Martin Chappell, live in a converted forge in Kennington, South East London. Their tiny enclosed courtyard, the old waiting area for the horses before they were shod, measures only 6x5m.

Chelsea Medal winning husband and wife design team Erik de Meijer and Jane Hudson take on the tricky task of designing the new garden.

Nick and Martin want a sleek contemporary courtyard, with a slightly industrial feel, to complement the original use of the site.
