Chaucer Road Gardens are fine examples of large Edwardian gardens tucked away on the south side of Cambridge. They are all very different in size and character, some with glimpses of a bygone age. There are magnificent old trees, fine lawns, ponds and a water meadow with river frontage and rare breed sheep. Planting is varied, sometimes unusual, and in constant flux.
