GT trip to Gravetye Manor Gardens, East Grinstead, Sussex, the former home and gardens of garden writer William Robinson; by the kind invitation of the William Robinson Gravetye Trust

Following on from our wonderful talk by Judith Nesbitt on the legacy of William Robinson we are delighted to offer an exclusive tour led by Fiona Humphreys of the William Robinson Gravetye Trust around the former gardens of William Robinson at Gravetye Manor, East Grinstead, Sussex. The tour will include access to the walled vegetable garden, which is a definite highlight, and a walk and discussion around Robinson’s historic orchard and meadow.

Gravetye Estate is a working woodland estate in a hilly part of the High Weald. On leaving the Manor gardens, it will take approximately 30-40 minutes to walk to the ‘House Martins’ volunteer centre at Home Farm via Lower Lake where coffee and cake will be served.

The Manor Gardens and the wider estate are not suitable for wheelchair users as there are steps and steep gradients. This event is best suited to fit and able people.
