Gardens

The parkland to the east of the house together with the gardens were largely planted between 1939 and 1976.

Francis & Virginia Grant began restoring and developing the current garden, which includes herbaceous and shrub borders and woodland gardens, in 1995.

The collection of trees, shrubs, perennials and bulbs include many which are unusual and interesting. A Garden Map which lists some 300 plants is available on request.

As a memorial to Francis, who died in January 2003, Virginia has opened up Church Copse as well as continuing with the planned long term development of the garden and parkland.
