The Museum Garden
The new garden on Royal Hospital Road will be between the National Army Museum and 29 Tite Street and will sit above the basement extension of the National Army Museum.
The basement will be designed to accommodate generous soil zones and new tree planting above.
Due to its location, the garden will be an ideal space for outdoor seating, spillout from the National Army Museum’s café, and new planting, making this a pleasant space to enjoy for all.
Taking inspiration from themes of the British Army, the Museum Garden has been designed to offer activities, exhibition space for outdoor teaching, and play areas for children up to 11 years old, providing an interactive and educational way for the younger generation to learn about the Army.
The Museum Garden will be open from 7am to 7pm every day and will be open to all members of the public.

The Residents’ Garden
With most of the existing private garden on Tite Street retained, we are seeking to create a pleasant space for future residents of 29 Tite Street to enjoy, as well as providing a green visual amenity for neighbouring residents and passersby.
The garden will be approximately the size of two tennis courts, retaining most of the existing mature trees whilst creating a well designed and considered green space.
Our landscape architects, Andy Sturgeon Design, are developing designs for the boundary with Tite Street, drawing on local architectural features to open-up street-level views of the garden by introducing inverted arches and railings.

New trees and planting
As well as creating the new Museum Garden and retaining the garden on Tite Street, we are proposing to introduce five new trees on Tite Street.
Whilst retaining trees wherever possible, the current proposals include the removal of 15 trees, most of which are low-quality.
Overall, we are proposing to plant 30 new trees – including a new feature tree on the corner of Tite Street and Royal Hospital Road – which is a two-for-one
replacement strategy.
