Gardens I've designed
From courtyards to larger Yorkshire plots, each one shaped entirely around the people who live in it.
Every garden starts with a conversation
No two gardens here are the same, because no two clients are the same. Each project began with listening — to what the homeowner wanted, what the site needed, and what would actually work in the long term. The result is a collection of gardens that are beautiful, manageable, and quietly full of life.

A beautiful garden should fit your life. And if it can quietly give something back to the world around it, all the better.
Sally Tierney
What my clients say
We'd been putting the garden off for years. It felt overwhelming every time we walked outside. Sally listened properly. She didn't design what looked impressive on paper; she designed what would actually work for us.
I was worried that wanting a wildlife-friendly garden meant giving up any sense of order. Sally showed me that was never really true. We have bees, birds, and hedgehogs, and the garden still feels calm.
The consultation gave me more clarity than I'd expected, and the design followed naturally from there. The garden we have now is exactly what we needed.
Like what you see?
Every one of these gardens started with a conversation. If you're thinking about yours, I'd love to hear about it.
