A local landscaping team for the Itchen Valley villages
The villages that stretch north of Winchester along the Itchen Valley; Kings Worthy, Headbourne Worthy, Martyr Worthy, Itchen Abbas, Easton and beyond. They occupy one of the most quietly beautiful corners of Hampshire. The River Itchen runs clear and cold through a landscape of water meadows, chalk downland and ancient hedgerows, and the properties along its course tend to be substantial, well-established, and set within gardens that have genuine character and history.
It’s an area that sits between two of our most active locations, Andover to the north-west and Winchester to the south, and it’s one we know well. Greenflints has been working across this part of Hampshire since 2012, and the Itchen Valley villages are very much part of our regular patch. Whether a property sits in the heart of Kings Worthy, looks out across the water meadows from Martyr Worthy, or occupies a more exposed downland setting above Headbourne Worthy, we understand the landscape conditions, the soil character, and the level of care these gardens deserve.
We’re a small, family-run team and we work in a personal, straightforward way. Every enquiry gets a free site visit and a detailed, honest quote. Every job from a single-day fencing installation to a multi-week garden transformation, gets the same quality of attention and the same standard of finish.

What We Do
Our landscaping & garden services in Kings Worthy & the Winchester Villages
From garden design sensitive to the character of the Itchen Valley through to hard landscaping, fencing, planting and ongoing maintenance. We offer a complete service for homeowners across this part of north Hampshire.
Garden design
The gardens of the Itchen Valley villages often have a strong existing character, mature trees, established borders, features that have been part of the garden for decades. Good design in these settings is as much about listening and working with what’s there as it is about introducing something new. We offer a free consultation and detailed drawings before any work begins, and we design with sensitivity to the property, the landscape and the garden’s existing personality.
Garden maintenance
The chalk stream and downland gardens north of Winchester have a rich seasonal rhythm, an early and vigorous spring, a summer that can be dry on the better-drained chalk soils, and an autumn worth managing well to set the garden up for the following year. Our maintenance service covers regular grass cutting and strimming, pruning and hedge trimming, mulching and composting, wildflower area management and full lawn care, all on a schedule that suits your garden and your lifestyle.
Patios & hard landscaping
Many of the properties in the Itchen Valley villages are older homes where the choice of hard landscaping material matters as much as the quality of the installation, natural stone, reclaimed materials and traditional finishes often sit far more comfortably alongside period buildings than contemporary alternatives. We work across the full range of materials and will always recommend the option that best suits the character of the property, as well as designing and building steps, retaining walls, drainage systems and all forms of timber construction.
Fencing
From close-board and feather-edge panel fencing for residential gardens through to post-and-rail and chestnut pale fencing for the larger rural properties on the edges of the valley. We supply and install fencing suited to every type of property in this part of Hampshire. We use quality materials and take care with every installation, ensuring every fence is built to last and looks right within its setting.
Soft landscaping & planting
The Itchen Valley is one of Hampshire’s great chalk streams, and the gardens along its course have access to some exceptional planting conditions. From moisture from the river corridor, to the structure provided by chalk soil on higher ground, a landscape tradition that lends itself to classic English planting. We’ll recommend species and schemes suited to your specific conditions, from native chalk downland wildflowers and water meadow planting through to traditional ornamental borders and productive kitchen garden schemes.
Irrigation systems
For gardens away from the river corridor, on the drier chalk above the valley, summer moisture can be a limiting factor for new and establishing planting. We design and install bespoke irrigation systems that keep gardens thriving through Hampshire’s drier months, protecting the investment in new planting and reducing the daily effort of keeping things watered.
