Garden Description

You approach the garden by the edge of a dyke with wild grasses and meadow flowers tickling your legs – over the old stile, wildflowers merge with the eclectic planting synonymous with an eccentric Fen dweller!

A winding path of reclaimed york stone takes the visitor to Fen Ben’s dwelling – a traditional Fenland shed made from reclaimed materials. Next to the shed is a lean-to with a brick furnace where Fen Ben carries out his alchemy. All around the garden you will see clues to his lifestyle and personality and items associated with a Fen Tiger’s way of life from animal traps to ice skates – the clues to Fen life are there.
