About Clay Barn
The two gardens are divided by an undulating yew hedge.
Clay Barn
An artist rather than a gardener, Louise has created her garden from a field over the last 25 years, with intuitive planting in heavy clay stony ground. A formal garden with round lawn, local stone paving and walled beds and a shady vine covered arbour. Also a wild area with pond, plant varieties to encourage birds, bees and butterflies and a live willow arbour.
