Yard 41 – Farmers Daughter & Blackwoods Nursery | Nick Crooks – Architect

Yard 41 – a unique retail and lifestyle experience Nestled in a corner of Howick, KwaZulu Natal at the heart of the Midlands, Yard 41 offers visitors a place to shop, eat and relax with awe-inspiring views across the Umgeni Valley. The thoughtfully curated architecture by local architect Nick Crooks is a treat for the senses with an industrial yet modernist feel with gentrified warehouse and dock style buildings. The cluster of shops, offices, spacious restaurant and delightful nursery sit alongside the original 1941 built shop at Yard 41 housing The Ruby Orchard furniture, décor and gift store.
