We have endeavoured to make the garden that surrounds Selly Manor like cottage gardens of the Tudor period.
There is a turf seat, a vegetable patch, a Tudor toilet, an attractive parterre, and low herb hedging similar to a knot garden.
You’ll also find a bed of medicinal and culinary herbs.
Rosemary and fennel were used to flavour bland or rotten food and lavender was often hung up or scattered on the floor to improve the smell of the house.
