395: Giles Heap

The Sodshow, Garden Podcast - Sod Show

Show Notes

On todays episode Peter Donegan and Giles Heap of CED Natural Stone everything from trends in how stone in landscape design has evolved over the last 30 years, from what was (or, more to the point) what was not available, a super saturation of affordable sandstone and what the future maybe, all the way back to crazy paving, wooden sets and making your own in the 1970's. We talk Giles eventual entry into the stone industry, going on holidays with Dad, how a daughters education and a change in thinking wraps around todays products and just how that has changed how we use and lay them. In a nutshell, this is not how I imagined this conversation would go - but then, I think that's every episode of The Sodshow since time began. The Sodshow is available every Friday in iTunes, all good podcast stores and www.sodshow.com With thanks to London College of Garden Design for making this one happen.

Jamie Bigham is the person in charge of Dereen Gardens based in Kenmare and speaks with Peter Donegan. Derreen Garden covers more than 60 acres of garden and has over 12 km of paths which wind through mature and varied woodland full of rare and exotic plants. The garden is also a haven for wildlife and a habitat for Sika deer, Irish hares and red squirrel. Seals can often be seen from the shore and there have been sightings of otters and Kerry’s rarest mammal, the pine marten. By the shore there is an abundance of bird life, including cormorants, oyster catchers, gulls, great northern divers, guillemots, and sea eagles.
