A Wall Water Feature to Fit Your Decor
A Wall Water Feature to Fit Your Decor Having a wall fountain in your backyard or on a terrace is great when you seek to relax.
You can have one custom-built to suit your specifications even if you have a small amount of space. Both the stand alone and mounted types need to have a spout, a water basin, internal tubing, and a pump. There are any number of different types available on the market including traditional, contemporary, classical, or Asian. Stand-alone wall fountains, otherwise known as floor fountains, are considerably big and feature a basin on the ground.
You can decide to place your wall-mounted feature on an existing wall or build it into a new wall. The look of your landscape will seem more cohesive instead of disjointed when you put in this style of water feature.
Anglo Saxon Gardens at the Time of the Norman Conquest
Anglo Saxon Gardens at the Time of the Norman Conquest The introduction of the Normans in the second half of the eleventh century substantially altered The Anglo-Saxon ways of living. The ability of the Normans exceeded the Anglo-Saxons' in architecture and agriculture at the time of the conquest. But before focusing on home-life or having the occasion to contemplate domestic architecture or decoration, the Normans had to subjugate an entire society. Monasteries and castles served separate functions, so while monasteries were enormous stone structures assembled in only the most productive, wide dales, castles were set upon blustery knolls where the people focused on understanding offensive and defensive strategies. The serene practice of gardening was unlikely in these bleak bastions. Berkeley Castle is perhaps the most complete model in existence at present of the early Anglo-Norman form of architecture. The keep is reported to have been conceived during the time of William the Conqueror. As a method of deterring assailants from tunneling beneath the walls, an immense terrace surrounds the building.
A scenic bowling green, covered in grass and surrounded by battlements clipped out of an ancient yew hedge, forms one of the terraces.
