The street layout, verges and tree plantings constitute a historic designed landscape.
The street tree plantings reinforce the grid lay-out by following its form and softening its effect. The various tree species provide variety
in the streetscapes with a change in character from street to street and from season to season.
The boundary walls and hedges separate the private from the public space and contribute to the texture and variety of the streetscape
The low density of the original plots gave considerable garden ground and extensive plantings of trees and shrubs
within plot boundaries provide continuity across the boundaries between public and private space.
