The ground under Derby gardens

Much of Derby is on mudstone clays, with gravelly river deposits along the Derwent and Trent. Clay needs loosening; gravelly ground needs good topsoil.

New-build plots around Derby

New plots range from compact town gardens to larger gardens on the edge of the city.

Riverside gravel or upland clay, the preparation is planned around what's under the surface.

Weather and timing in Derby

Derby is mild with moderate rainfall, so new lawns settle comfortably from April and again once September arrives.
