Building on our successful design of rain gardens elsewhere in Greater Manchester, planting designs have been submitted for new rain gardens along Deansgate, Manchester. Planting designs, inspired by the Sheffield Grey to Green project, include resilient perennials and grasses and allow for a process of seasonal change in colours and textures. We love bringing nature into cities!
UPDATE 2026 – The rain gardens have been built and look FANTASTIC! Click on Deansgate Rain Gardens to see detailed project info and pictures of the finished scheme.
