Gardens - Cumbria's Finest, Mirehouse Garden, Nr Keswick
Mirehouse, near Keswick, is both typical and special. In many ways, it is a typical ancient manor house with an equally typical ancient garden, both of which have developed gradually over centuries and retain traces of the changing styles and tastes of many generations. On the other hand, it is a very special place, both because of its situation and because of its intimate connections with many major literary figures of the 19th century.
