Last summer I went to a really incredible place called the Lost Gardens of Helligan in Cornwall. It’s an amazing place not least because for nearly one hundred years it was lost, overgrown and abandoned. The landowner hired an archaeologist and a builder to find it, and slowly the gardens came back to life. It’s an amazing story of regeneration and hope. The cool ending to the tale is that the archaeologist’s next project was to continue his passion for regeneration by transforming an old quarry into the Eden Project. So here’s a photo from the Lost Gardens. Hope you like!
