Why a Hindley Garden Starts With the Build-Up
Hindley is about seven miles west of Bolton and roughly three miles east of Wigan, sharing the WN2 postcode with Hindley Green, Platt Bridge and Ince-in-Makerfield.
The ground here is flat and heavy, and after rain it holds its water rather than shedding it, and a good deal of the newer housing sits on reclaimed colliery land.
All of which means the part of a Hindley garden that decides whether it lasts is the part nobody ever sees.
Terraces on the Main Roads, Estates Behind Them
Much of the older core of Hindley is coal-era terraces strung along the main roads, with interwar and post-war semis filling in behind and newer estates further out on reclaimed colliery land.
How deep the dig has to go
On heavy ground the depth taken out, and what goes back in as sub-base, is what a patio then sits on for the rest of its life.
A sub-base that drains rather than holds
Material that lets water through instead of trapping it under the surface is what keeps a finished surface where it was laid.
Ground that was machined flat
On reclaimed land the made-up ground can be firm in one corner of a plot and soft a few metres away, so it is dug and checked rather than assumed.
Level changes on a plot that has none
Flat ground gives a garden nothing to work with, so a step, a raised terrace or a deck on proper foundations is often what creates the separation a sloping plot gets for free.
Privacy on a Flat, Open Plot
Flat ground gives you nothing for free.
Closeboard or panel fencing fixed properly, trellis toppers that add height without a solid wall of timber, and a seating area sited where it is least overlooked will do more than a taller fence on its own.
On wet, heavy ground the posts and how they are set are the part that decides how long the run stands, so on this ground the part below the surface does more of the work than the panel above it.
Frontages come into it too on the terraced main roads, where the front is the part of the house everyone sees.

Hindley – Your Questions
Our Hindley garden is completely flat and water sits on it for days. Can the levels be changed?
They can, within reason. A garden needs somewhere to send water before a fall is worth putting on it, so the first job is finding where it can go.
From there it is a question of re-grading, rebuilding the ground so it drains, or lifting the usable area clear of the wet with a deck or a raised terrace.
The estate we are on in Hindley Green was built on reclaimed colliery land. Does that affect a patio?
It affects what we expect to dig into.
Made-up ground can be consolidated in one part of a plot and soft a couple of metres away, so we dig and look rather than assume a standard depth.
The sub-base is then built for what is actually there, which is the whole reason a patio on this ground stays flat.
We want privacy but the plot is open on three sides. What actually works?
A combination, rather than one very tall fence.
Sound fencing at a sensible height, trellis toppers for a bit more screening, and the seating area placed at the least overlooked corner usually beats trying to wall the whole plot in.
On flat, heavy ground how the posts are set matters as much as what goes on them.
Do you cover Platt Bridge, Ince and Aspull as well as Hindley itself?
Yes. We come across from Bolton and work through Hindley, Hindley Green, Platt Bridge, Ince-in-Makerfield and Aspull, and on into Wigan a few miles west.
