For years, the Easton Walled Gardens lay neglected, its wild growth an impenetrable maze of branches, thorns, and self-seeded trees. While many saw it as an overwhelming tangle, the Cholmeley family saw potential. They took on the task of reclaiming the space, carefully clearing the brambles and shaping it into a stunning landscape of rose gardens, borders, meadows, and shrubberies that we can enjoy today.
