The most common reason for the respondents' preferences of (A) is the system of flow is clearly delineated and the scheme in (A) is considered practical as this both preserves and improves the beauty of the garden. In (C) the separate routes and entrances of the footpath system were thought to enhance privacy in the different landscape sections. The footpath system in (C) is tidy and again creates a clear delineation between different landscape sections. The respondents remarked that (B) exhibited an awkward overlapping movement; a small number of respondents opined that this solution (B) created confused flow or movement.
