About Stockcross House

A romantic two acre garden set around a Grade 2 listed former Rectory (not open) and designed to create vistas from every part of the garden of the impressive Victorian church tower of St. John’s which dominates the space.

Created and developed over the last 30 years on two levels with many deep mixed borders, a rich variety of trees, shrubs and perennials and a small Stumpery/Fernery with gate designed by Melissa Cole. A large Orangery with vines, a long wisteria and clematis clad Pergola leads to steps down to the lower garden where a small cascade falls into a naturalistic pond with several places to sit and contemplate.

A double pair of red ornamental gates, also by Melissa Cole and created to celebrate a Ruby Wedding anniversary, were featured on BBC Countryfile and lead to a Reflecting Pond designed to mirror the church tower and Folly. Also a croquet lawn with long rose clad wall and Pavilion. Path to greenhouse and Kitchen Garden. Featured in BBC Gardeners’ World September 2023 (Ep 24).
