Seaham

Typical new-build gardens in Seaham

Coastal plots can be open and level, with lawns exposed to the wind on one side. Firm edges and tight joints matter more here.

An exposed coastal garden is still a good place for a lawn; it simply needs a well-prepared start.

The ground under Seaham gardens

Seaham sits on magnesian limestone topped with glacial clay. Gardens can be stony, with old fill and debris below the surface, so clearing and levelling are the first jobs.

Weather and timing in Seaham

On the clifftops the wind is the main challenge. Turf laid in late spring or early autumn, with steady watering, establishes well.
