The ground in Wrington
Wrington sits in its own vale under the northern Mendip edge, with Redhill and Butcombe above it and the Yeo running out below. The village core is stone and the lanes around it hold larger houses with land, paddocks and orchards attached, which is a different kind of garden entirely.
On a plot like that the ask is usually management rather than construction. Hedges and boundaries kept, an overgrown orchard opened back up, a paddock topped and its fencing put right, trees taken down safely before they come down on their own.
The vale ground is heavier than the hill ground at Cheddar, so machinery access and where the spoil goes are the first two questions on any groundwork here.
