I've never lived in a town, but if I ever did I'd hope to have a garden like this!
This is the garden of a customer I was working for this week and it's situated right in the middle of Ludlow.
You'd never believe it was there.
It's laid out beautifully and at the end there's a massive vegtable and fruit garden.
I little slice of heaven!
Walled on one side it must have an amazing micro climate for growing veg, many of theirs were so much further on than mine and many had lasted the winter well.
I work in a lot of different places and I love seeing the gardens just as much as seeing their houses. I think so far this has to be my favorite garden from a customer and ti makes me wonder how good it would look in the summer.
I love old walled kitchen gardens, Kev. Heligan (Cornwall) is my favourite. Think I will visit a large estate garden this Easter weekend.
ReplyDeleteWe went to Heligan last year and I loved it. I'd like to go back in the autumn and see everything being harvested. I've got a great book on it's restoration which is really interesting.
DeleteThat conservatory/greenhouse/orangery is to die for!!

It's lovely - my mums having one built that's simular. Your be jelous of that one!
DeleteIt looks like a really nice garden, the greenhouse is lovely! I wish I had one like that, but I feel happy to have a plastic one all the same - not beautiful, but it does its job!
ReplyDeleteThis si a garden they've worked at for years and things like the greenhouse come over time. So long at you can grow in it, I don't think it matters what it looks like.
DeleteIt's a lovely garden. Hope having more land for gardening! I live in urban area with a limited land. Always dreaming...
ReplyDeleteThat's what's so surpricing about this garden as its right in the middle of a town. I've walked by this house thousands of times and I never knew it had a garden like this.
DeleteHi Kev, what a grand garden. I'm just stopping by to say how delightful your blog is. Thanks so much for sharing. I have recently found your blog and am now following you, and will visit often. Please stop by my blog and perhaps you would like to follow me also. Have a wonderful day and Happy Easter. Hugs, Chris
