Description
Wildlife
There are a good number of (mostly non-native) trees on the site, such as London plane, weeping ash, common lime, horse-chestnut and oak. Native shrubs have been planted around the perimeter, including hornbeam, field maple, hawthorn and guelder-rose. The amenity grassland, which is in two sections either end of the garden, is rarely cut (except at the edges), to allow wildflowers to seed.Facilities
