A seven acre garden in Kent, just full of perennials and shrubs.
Created over the last 40 years it gives the impression of being much older.
Take a look at the ruins that have been built which create an air of interest and intrigue.
If you have the space and the time - why not try this yourself – just an inkling of a little ruin hidden amongst a group of small evergreen shrubs will always surprise visitors!
