Wollerton Old Hall
Great British Gardens: Season by Season with Carol Klein - S2 - E4
Carol visits the garden of a 16th-century manor house, Wollerton Old Hall in Shropshire, a beautiful and intricate four-acre oasis in the English garden tradition. With its traditional craftsmanship, sympathetic architecture, elegant topiary and hedges, and deep borders, it looks like it's been here for 100 years, but owners Lesley and John only bought the property in 1983, and since then have set about recapturing the spirit and quality of a bygone era.
