Morpeth
Morpeth gardens after the builders leave
New-build gardens around the town are often on gently sloping ground, with lawns that fall towards the valley. Some larger plots come with generous front gardens.
A bigger plot on a gentle slope suits turf well; the preparation just needs to keep the fall even.
Soil in Morpeth: what we prepare for
The ground varies: heavier clay till on the higher land, and lighter, gravelly soil in parts of the Wansbeck valley. Both get compacted by building work and need loosening before turf.
Timing your lawn in Morpeth
Sitting in a river valley, Morpeth can see later frosts than the coast. Turf laid from late April, or in September while the soil is still warm, usually establishes steadily.
