In 1968 following some regrettable vandalism , the graves were transferred to nearby Brookwood Military Cemetery.<\/p>\n<p>For many years, the Horsell Common Preservation Society (who had by then taken over the site) had tried without success to find a way to raise funds to renovate and protect this important monument, but then in 2012, and mindful of the centenary commemorations of the commencement of the Great War, English Heritage, offered to fund 80% of the cost of repairs to the boundary wall structure. In response, Woking Borough Council agreed to meet the balance to complete the project. So in the autumn of 2013, renovation experts \u00a0Universal Stone Ltd, commenced repairs to the brickwork and Portland Stone capping under the guidance of chartered architects Radley House Partnership. Following this terra firma\u2019s designs for the garden found funding through numerous sources following energetic efforts of both HCPS and Woking Borough Council\u2019s Dr Zafar Iqbal. Following competitive tender, the contract was won by landscape contractor LDC with water feature specialist Fountains Direct and the work was implemented November 2014-June 2015.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1706\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1706\" style=\"width: 768px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.terrafirmaconsultancy.com\/landscape-architect-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/IMG_3896-768x1024.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-1706\" src=\"http:\/\/www.terrafirmaconsultancy.com\/landscape-architect-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/IMG_3896-768x1024-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Muslim Burial Ground Peace Garden\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.terrafirmaconsultancy.com\/landscape-architect-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/IMG_3896-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.terrafirmaconsultancy.com\/landscape-architect-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/IMG_3896-768x1024-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1706\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">terra firma photo from October 2015<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1705\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1705\" style=\"width: 687px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.terrafirmaconsultancy.com\/landscape-architect-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/DSC_0074-687x1024.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-1705\" src=\"http:\/\/www.terrafirmaconsultancy.com\/landscape-architect-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/DSC_0074-687x1024-687x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Muslim Burial Ground Peace Garden\" width=\"687\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.terrafirmaconsultancy.com\/landscape-architect-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/DSC_0074-687x1024.jpg 687w, https:\/\/www.terrafirmaconsultancy.com\/landscape-architect-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/DSC_0074-687x1024-201x300.jpg 201w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 687px) 100vw, 687px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1705\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">terra firma photo from October 2015<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1700\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1700\" style=\"width: 780px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.terrafirmaconsultancy.com\/landscape-architect-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/IMG_3881.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-1700\" src=\"http:\/\/www.terrafirmaconsultancy.com\/landscape-architect-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/IMG_3881-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Muslim Burial Ground Peace Garden\" width=\"780\" height=\"585\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.terrafirmaconsultancy.com\/landscape-architect-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/IMG_3881.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.terrafirmaconsultancy.com\/landscape-architect-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/IMG_3881-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 780px) 100vw, 780px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1700\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">terra firma photo from October 2015<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1699\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1699\" style=\"width: 780px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.terrafirmaconsultancy.com\/landscape-architect-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/IMG_3879.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-1699\" src=\"http:\/\/www.terrafirmaconsultancy.com\/landscape-architect-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/IMG_3879-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Muslim Burial Ground Peace Garden\" width=\"780\" height=\"585\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.terrafirmaconsultancy.com\/landscape-architect-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/IMG_3879.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.terrafirmaconsultancy.com\/landscape-architect-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/IMG_3879-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 780px) 100vw, 780px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1699\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">terra firma photo from October 2015<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The garden brings together the cultural expression of the traditional Islamic Garden with the natural elements of the Common. A formal geometry is set up from the walls around a central waterbody fed by a rill and small waterfall from an upper pool upon which an uplit monolithic memorial stone (with all the names of the fallen engraved) seemingly floats as the garden\u2019s focus. Paths of Indian sandstone lead around the garden while planting beds of Birch and Heather provide seasonal colour and spatial definition. Outer boundaries include evergreen and deciduous plantings in simple swathes, kept low so as not to detract from the Listed walls but with sentinel columnar plantings opposite ends, either side of the Chatri and the memorial stone. The design is underlaid with symbolism with one tree for each soldier originally buried; the use of Portland stone within Indian granite on the memorial; the Irish yew of the English churchyard with Birch tree varieties that originated on the Indian subcontinent; the inclusion of stone prayer mats orientated toward Mecca (as are the strips of differing heather species within the beds)and the calming site and sound of gently moving water.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1703\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1703\" style=\"width: 780px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a
