The ground under Gloucester gardens
The Severn vale is heavy clay. On new plots it can be smeared and slow-draining, so loosening and grading are the most important parts of the prep.
New-build plots around Gloucester
Gardens are generally level, and some sit on low ground that stays damp in winter.
Level clay needs a gentle fall worked into it so rain runs off rather than sitting.
Weather and timing in Gloucester
The vale is mild, so the laying season is long. Spring and autumn give the best results.
