The 18th-century poet William Cowper, who lived in this house, was a keen and innovative gardener, and even grew pineapples in a hot bed. The flower garden is filled with a wide range of plants that were introduced to England before 1800, the year of Cowper’s death. There is also a Victorian-style kitchen garden with heritage fruit and vegetables.
