Patio design
 
I am trying to find websites showing patio designs/layouts so I can get
ideas. I have looked at WH Smith for magazines and books but can't seem to
find anything. I just want to get ideas.

If anyone knows of any books magazines or websites please e-mail me at
or reply to group.

Thanks David.

PS Best not put your email address in a newsgroup posting, as the scammers
scan the newsgroups for valid addresses to send junk mail to. If you want
someone to reply to you use a "Munged" email address such as

Books with 'small gardens' or 'town gardens' in the title are good for
patio designs. I have one by David Stevenson which is good for
inspiration, also Roy Strong did one which has a few plans in it.

If you can get to a Waterstones, they're better than WH Smiths for
gardening ... take a day over it, browse as many books as you can and
buy the most useful.

Depending on your timescale, also visit a few gardens - look for the
'yellow book' of gardens open to the public for charity - there will be
a number of small private gardens open, and they're the best to look at
for ideas that will work in a reasonable sized space as opposed to an
estate.

and if you do that to$$ers unmunge it and subscribe you to all sorts
of things you wouldn't believe existed.


Yes, there is always the risk that someone could go out of their way to do
that. But it is still better than leaving your actual email address visible
to bots.

Your local library could be a great starting point as well

Hi David,

There are lots of design ideas on the Marshalls web site -
http://home.marshalls.co.uk/. They also have a brochure with lots of
pictures, which you can order online.
