Discover a garden shaped by generations at Weston Hall

Explore a stunning blend of past and present. Weston Hall dates from the 16th century. It has been in Pelham Aldrich-Blake’s family for four generations, and each has left its mark on the house and garden.

The massive Cedar of Lebanon in front of the house possibly dates back to the 1830’s. This part of the grounds has many interesting trees and shrubs, including dawn redwood, maidenhair tree, pocket handkerchief tree, various magnolias, and a fine variegated dogwood.

The walled garden was redesigned in 1989, and along with fruit and vegetables now has herbaceous borders, lawns, yew hedges and a pond. 

The folly that overlooks the walled garden was built in 2000 to mark the millennium. The inner courtyard adjoining the house was redesigned in 2007, with a new pool and fountain.
