The garden on the extreme left hand side of the photograph above is being left to the wild life. The gardens are maintained by our full-time groundsman Chris and his assistant Matt together with the help of a group of adults with learning disabilities from Reyfileds Daycentre in Newton Abbot.
The photographs below shew recent progress together with the two main stalwarts.
