Beyond the more formal part of the garden is a field where we have planted a growing collection of trees. There are mown paths leading to views of the adjacent fields. In the midst of the trees is a column which was erected in 1987. It was brought down by the hurricane that year and again the following year in a gale. It now has a steel rod through its core!
Eucalyptus and Silver Birch
One area of the field has a mixture of silver birch and eucalyptus which are particularly satisfying in winter when their bark shows up well against the sky.
