What a garden & landscape design project looks like here

Drummoyne sits inside the City of Canada Bay LGA, not Inner West — DAs lodged need to reference the Canada Bay LEP 2013 + DCP, which has different controls from neighbouring Rozelle (Inner West LEP 2022).

The Iron Cove + Five Dock Bay foreshore strip is mapped under the Sydney Harbour Catchment SEPP — DAs here need a foreshore-impact assessment + overshadowing test, adding 4-6 weeks to consent.

Drummoyne's typical lot widths run 12-15m on most detached stock, materially wider than Newtown or Surry Hills inner-west — this allows side-passage extensions that wouldn't be possible elsewhere in the inner-west LGAs.

Native + drought-tolerant plantings, irrigation, lighting — Tree Preservation Order screening, Significant Tree Register coordination, council water-conservation rebate eligibility. In Drummoyne specifically, federation cottages stock means garden & landscape design scope is shaped by the neighborhood's dominant construction typology. Baily's Sydney scoping flow factors partial heritage conservation area and sydney harbour catchment sepp into the estimate before a contractor is involved.

Origin

Who is Baily?

Baily is named after Francis Baily — an English stockbroker who retired at 51, became an astronomer, and in 1836 described something on the edge of a solar eclipse that nobody had properly articulated before: a string of bright beads of sunlight breaking through the valleys along the moon’s rim.

He wasn’t the first to see them. Edmond Halley saw them in 1715 and barely noticed. Baily’s contribution was clarity — describing exactly what was happening, in plain language, so vividly that the whole field of astronomy paid attention. The phenomenon is still called Baily’s beads.

That’s what we wanted our AI to do. Every inbound call and text has signal in it — a homeowner’s real question, a timeline, a budget, a hesitation that means “yes but.” Baily listens to every one, 24/7, and finds the beads of light.

Baily was a businessman before he was a scientist. That’s our vibe too.
