The Webb Estate and Upper Woodcote Village Conservation Area Appraisal and Management Plan-DRAFT - The South Border

The South Border

9.2.18 The following works are considered enhancements for The South Border:

  • Implementation of high hedging (preferably privet) or a low retaining wall aligned with the established boundary line. Planting in front of this boundary should conform to the street’s existing planting scheme and may occasionally include a ditch or ha-ha. Replacement of wire mesh with low (1.1m) fences that match the original mesh and posts, where appropriate.
  • Reinstatement of herbaceous borders on the northern side of the South Border, where appropriate, as several have been lost and absorbed into the gardens of adjacent properties.
  • Reinforcement of bulb planting to extend the flowering season, as recommended by Webb.
