Stockton BuryGardens

Stockton Bury Gardens occupies four acres within a working farm at Kimbolton, north of Leominster. Raymond Treasure has gardened the site since childhood and built the garden's collection of unusual trees, shrubs and herbaceous planting over several decades; his nieces Tamsin and Connie Westhorpe now run it day to day. A cider orchard planted in 1974 still produces fruit, and a converted cider mill houses a small garden museum of old orchard and farm tools. Clun Forest sheep graze the paddock beside the Tithe Barn café, which serves lunches and cakes made from home-grown and local produce; visitors may use the café without paying garden admission. The garden opens April to September, Wednesday to Sunday, and is closed over winter.
