A professional gardener from Kew in London was employed to landscape the grounds in the mid-19th century. Evidence of formal Victorian flower beds and hebaceous borders still remain and there is an excellent photographic record of the grounds over a period of 130 years. In the 1890s a riverside path was laid - now truncated and overgrown - running from the Lodge to the ruins of 18th century High Bridge over a mile away.
Eating out in the village. Within a couple of minutes' walk - Russell's Restaurant (2 AA Rosettes), Old Station Restaurant & Bar and 2 hotels serving bar food. Old Pines Restaurant is 20 mins walk (1 mile). Many other local pubs and restaurants are just a short drive away. Scenic and mostly low level long distance walk of 79 miles.
