Whitwells Farm, Kingsmead

Owners - Phil and Karen Russell

One of the village's oldest buildings, its main horticultural feature is an ancient walnut tree. Laid mainly to lawn, with surrounding shrubs, the garden contains a large swimming pool, so be careful with small children. There are a few shallow steps but the gravel drive will be a difficulty for wheelchairs. Owners Karen and Phil have pruned some of the older trees and shrubs to ensure their longevity, introduced more pots and kept the vegetable garden going. The garden remains a work in progress and results are already showing.
A short history of Whitwells Farm is proved in the link below.
