Story

Originally part of the de Saumarez family estate; acquired by States of Guernsey in 1937 after death of 4th Lord de Saumarez; fell into disrepair until restoration began in 2006 (inferred from the source page)

Victorian Walled Kitchen Garden is a community-focused restoration and conservation project, run by volunteers, aimed at upholding and preserving the history and heritage of Guernsey’s horticultural past. The project also educates people of all ages and abilities about the benefits of gardening, thereby promoting, supporting and sustaining the physical and mental well-being of the island community. The Guernsey Botanical Trust LBG formed in 2006 for the purpose of restoring the garden as a charitable and voluntary community project. —
