Turvey Village Gardens - Open Garden for NGS
The historic village of Turvey lies beside the River Great Ouse and is recorded in Domesday Book of 1086 as a parish in the Hundred of Willey. Four gardens in the village offer a varied mix of design and interest. Chantry House is a 1½ acre garden, approached by a drive bounded by mature yew and box cloud hedges where the medieval church of All Saints overlooks the garden at this point. A south facing lawn is flanked by high rose covered walls and interspersed by herbaceous beds. 7 The Green is an informal village garden. A wide terrace with comfortable seating and a myriad of planted pots overlooks a central lawn and flowerbeds which slope down to flowering cherries and a view of pasture and mature trees. Gable End is a medium-sized garden consisting of four distinct areas.
