The Old Granite Cider Mill

Brief:

Redesign an existing garden space and link with the newly built extension and existing farm house. Include an antique granite cider mill and transform into a bespoke water feature. 

Design:

The old granite cider mill tells the story of the ever hard working mare pulling the weighty wheel, pivoting round the central point of the old granite cider mill.  Crushing fresh juicy apples, she ploughs on, round and round and round. 

The worn Cornish granite cider mill was carefully placed and settles in the centre of the Cornish Farm Garden. The circular pattern of water ripples echoes in the surrounding heavy granite paving and elegant planting of ornamental grasses and perennials.

A difficult shaped terrace has transformed into a tranquil outdoor room.
