Norbury's mix of period properties and newer developments presents unique challenges for garden design. Whether you're tackling a narrow plot behind a Thornton Heath terrace or managing a larger space near Pollards Hill, smart planting choices and clever hard landscaping transform demanding gardens into serene retreats. Local clay soil and shade from neighbouring properties actually work brilliantly with drought-tolerant plants and contemporary materials.
Strategic gravel pathways eliminate muddy lawns whilst providing natural drainage during South London's unpredictable downpours. Native ferns thrive beneath established trees, requiring minimal attention once settled. Composite decking creates useable space without annual treatments, while automated irrigation systems handle watering duties. Each element reduces maintenance demands without sacrificing visual appeal.
