Garden Visits 2010
The Garden is open to groups, a minimum of 20 (up to a full
size coach) from May to Sept. any day or evening. The Garden is 1½
acres split into different areas, a hot Mediterranean garden with bottle
wall and folly for sun loving plants. We have a Victorian fern house and
a walled garden.
There is a woodland walkway for shade loving plants and a large stream fed pond planted with a wide range of unusual foliage & flowering plants, alongside climbing roses, clematis, shrubs & herbaceous borders. In the garden there is sculpture and a hardy plant nursery, with a wide selection of perennial plants of interest to the keen gardener & flower arranger. There is a large garden studio & conservatory with indoor seating as insurance against the weather. The garden has been featured in Lancashire Life, Flora Magazine, Gardens Illustrated and Lancashire Magazine.
New for 2010
A Gallery will open in the garden to house the sculpture of Thompson Dagnall.
This is in the form of a traditional log cabin made of whole larch logs
with a green roof.
