Historic garden is brought back to life

Published: 11/07/2022

A HISTORIC walled garden has been brought back to life, with the help of volunteers.

Distington Walled Garden, owned by Copeland Council, has been transformed over the last eight months, with once overgrown grounds – now full of beautiful blooms.

The Victorian walled garden was formerly part of Distington Mansion, and is now filled with a lavender maze, yoga lawn, large greenhouses, tranquil seating areas, and a soon to be open café.
