About gardens in Uphill and Bailgate
Uphill Lincoln, around Bailgate, Steep Hill, Newport and the Minster Yard, is the historic heart of the city. Many houses are Georgian, Victorian or older, with walled gardens, courtyards and stone boundaries, and much of the area is a conservation area.
Soils here are thin over limestone and drain fast. Lawns need depth to stay green, and planting suits plants that like alkaline, free-draining ground. Natural stone paths and careful border work suit these properties best.
