Description
Thirteen acres, one of the oldest botanic gardens in London, and 1,300 years of history in the ground beneath your feet. Our guided garden tour takes you from the Tudor courtyard to the walled garden, with stops at a five hundred year old oak, a magnolia grown from cuttings tracing back to the 1600s, and a wildflower moat that's rather busier with butterflies these days than it ever was with bishops. Along the way, you'll hear how generations of Bishops, gardeners and volunteers have shaped this place, including the parts of that history that are harder to tell. Get your tickets now!
