If you live, work, or manage property near Silk Street, you already know outdoor space in Barbican EC2Y is a bit different from a suburban garden.

If you live, manage, or care for gardens around Golden Lane Estate, you already know the space asks for a very particular kind of attention. It is not a sprawling suburban lawn. It is more considered than that.

If you live in or around the Barbican Centre and share a city flat, garden maintenance can feel oddly complicated. Space is tighter, access is trickier, and the margin for mess is tiny.
