Still a work in progress, the garden at Manor Farm has been conceived around the existing structure of mature hedges and a medieval, listed, brick and flint wall as a series of interconnecting rooms. Each space has its own, distinctive character, reflected in its planting whilst, overall, the garden incorporates traditional and contemporary elements and materials.
