Arley Hall Cheshire - The Flower family. Back to Garden UK
Also in the vicinity is Arley Hall situated. When I visited it in 1994 there where great hopes for the future in garden and parkland. One may wonder if they are fulfilled? There were great possibilities and very much to see as it was. The long herbaceous border - The Alcove Walk - was laid out in 1846 and said to be the earliest of its kind in England
1 The present house from mid-nineteenth century.
2 The Tudor barn with the gateway to the  new house
3 The cruck barn from the fifteenth century
4 The Alcove Walk now called The Border
5 The blue Meconopsis grandis and other forms at the end of the border in a small woodland
