When you look at your garden you may well wonder what the point of the large expanse of grass is for. This is the lawn. The lawn has been a feature of English and UK gardens since time immemorial. A well manicured beautiful lawn was seen as one of the highlights of a garden especially if it was at the front of the property. However, in our modern age the lawn has had to take second place to many other uses. In a large number of cases you will see the lawn is destroyed in favour of parking bays and spaces for vehicles. In other examples the lawn is moved and a formal gravelled garden is placed instead because this requires less maintenance.  should we be in such a rush to get rid of our lawns?  What purpose can they serve?

A lawn is not that hard to maintain. With the correct equipment you can easily have a lush verdant space to be admired. You will need a decent lawn mower for this to be able to get the perfect cut and shape. Therefore one should always have some Briggs and Stratton Parts  around to maintain your perfect lawn. Go to briggsbits.co.uk/ to find some for your lawn mower.

The main purpose of a lawn, especially at the front of the property is to act as a flood break. This large expanse of open space will readily suck up water which will then be used to keep the lawn fresh. We have paved over and tarmacs over our lawns so that if flooding does occur it allows the flow of water into our homes a lot easier. Therefore, unless it is of a great need i.e. to keep a car or caravan off the road, then perhaps leaving the lawn may be a much better option.

At the back of the house the advantages of a lawn speak for themselves. This is a large open space that can be used for recreational facilities. If you have children this is a perfect play area.   It is easily able to accommodate outdoor equipment if you have space. It can also be an impromptu badminton or swingball court. If you favour planting and raised beds it immediately limits the garden in terms of space. With these editions to the garden it can look fantastic but; the lack of a lawn can shrink the garden and make it feel claustrophobic.

Again, the care of the lawn is not particularly difficult. Grass is a particularly hardy plant that even when you may think it is on its last legs it is able to come back green and fresh again. For example, brown grass is not dead grass, it is merely dormant. There may be the necessity to dig out some weeds, perhaps use some lawn feeder from time to time, but for the most part with regular cutting, the lawn will look after itself. There are not many elements of the garden where this is true.
