Friends Sue Spout and Dean Bolton-Grant from Harrogate in Yorkshire both own their own garden businesses and between them have decades of experience and include royalty amongst the people they’ve worked for. Despite living opposite sides of the country Tamara Bridge and Kate Savill have collaborated on a number of show gardens since winning medals for young garden designer of the year. Faced with designing gardens for an open public area that has in the past been neglected and suffered from vandalism what type of gardens will the designers create? And who will be victorious?
