Chilworth Manor: An English Jewel

Рет қаралды 405,685

Күн бұрын

Hidden away in the Surrey Hills, this English jewel has ancient origins dating back to William the Conqueror. Its gardens were later shaped by two impressive women; Sarah, Duchess of Marlborough in the early 18th century and Daphne, Lady Heald in the 20th century. Today, much of the garden retains reference to the Duchess who bought the manor in 1725 and immediately doubled its size by adding a glorious, Georgian wing. Learn more about Chilworth Manor and its garden as Head Gardener, John Macrae Brown takes us on a virtual visit.

A garden been alive and thriving a 1000 Years. I am in tears just at the thought. Flora, Fauna I grew up in America and yearn to return to my "roots" there. People here are often just ignorant on this subject. It torments me. I cultivate a tiny garden adjacent to my home, laughable but treasured.

absolutely stunning & inspirational. Fantastic job by the Head Gardener/ Host. This was one of the best shot, edited & narrated virtual garden tours i have seen, and I have been going through a lot of them lately. This tour made me want to visit this garden and soak up the inspiration & beauty in person. Thank you for such a well crafted virtual tour!

"I wish that more people would emphasize on making the world a beautiful place " You are not alone, my Friend ! Creativity is so much more rewarding than Destruction, Beauty so much more satisfying than Ugliness. Simple truths that too many folk (mysteriously) find too complicated to understand.

Bravo to the intensive and prolonged work gone into maintaining those plants, many a magnet to bees too, good source of inspiring ideas... As it goes, the Japanese are frontrunners when it comes to intensive care of formal gardens, so I think such styles lend themselves well to large-scale gardens elsewhere...
