Fabulous Ribbon Driveway

An old-fashioned design that harkens to the days when wagon ruts ran down the middle of a roadway, ribbon driveways typically put pavement beneath the wheels and grass in the middle. Back in fashion not just because they look great, they also create a permeable surface to reduce water runoff. Everything old is new again and I love this design. via

I love this! Here in England we have so little land, and so many people who cement over gardens that flooding is a big problem. This old design is timeless and would look great with modern or period properties. It is gentle.

The outbuildings are wonderful too! Nice piece of property, well-cared for.
