Garden Pathway & Step Installation
Garden Pathway & Step Installation in Cheshire, Wilmslow and Manchester
A well-designed pathway guides movement through your garden with purpose and ease. At Skylark Garden Design, we create pathways and garden steps that feel naturally embedded in the landscape, combining safety, durability and a sensitivity to the surrounding planting. The result is access that enhances - rather than interrupts - the character of your outdoor space
Crafted Pathways That Shape Your Garden’s Flow
​Since 2018, Skylark has worked across Cheshire, Wilmslow and Manchester to design and install pathways that balance function with aesthetic harmony. Every project begins with understanding how you move through your garden, how you use each space and how the path can strengthen those natural rhythms.
Tom Saunders - trained at the British Academy of Garden Design and award winning show gardens with the RHS and BBC Gardeners World- brings a considered, research-led approach, ensuring each pathway sits comfortably within its setting.

Successful Gardens Across Cheshire & Wilmslow
Expertise is best mesured by results. We take pride in the lasting realtionships and successful garden transformatipns we have achieved for our clients throughout Cheshire, Wimslow, and Manchester
“We wanted to refresh and redesign our front garden in a style more sympathetic to our Georgian house but mindful of our location on a busy, shaded road. We first met with Tom with very little idea of what would work and how to approach the project. From the first, Tom exceeded all our expectations to deliver a 'ferntastic' courtyard garden that not only met (and went beyond) our brief but gave us a space that is completely 'us' and was tailored to our budget. Tom brought in-depth planting knowledge and advice combined with creativity (his sketches and 'example' plant set ups were so helpful in enabling us to visualised how the finished piece would look) but more importantly he's great to work with, completely dedicated and his enthusiasm is catching - I'm quite the gardener now!”
