The award-winning garden
At the End of My Garden draws on nostalgic images of home and is intended to be a place where visitors can reflect on what they hold dear.
Sponsored by Wesleyan Assurance Society, the garden has been created by award-winning garden designers Toby and Stephanie Hickish of Summers Gardens.
The garden is reached via stepping stones across a traditional lawn, where the borders feature soothing plants such as lavender.
Visitors then cross a bridge over a stream and enter a woodland area, where they will find therapeutic plants such as echinacea, along with ferns, ivy and ornamental foxgloves beneath a canopy of oak, elder and birch trees.
They then find a garden shed, tools, firewood and compost bins, intended to bring up memories from their own garden, or from a place where they have spent time.
The garden will be open to the public from July 23-27.
