This walled riverside garden was William Wordworth’s childhood playground. Here he developed a love of nature that helped him become one of the world’s favourite poets. Among its 18th-century flowers, herbs, vegetables and fruit, you too can discover how his ‘sweet birthplace’ inspired his creativity, and from the foliage-shrouded terrace where he and his sister Dorothy played, watch the Derwent, his ‘fairest of all rivers’, flowing past.
