Country House Garden

What is recorded here

Llangibby Castle Garden in Monmouthshire, Wales, dates to the 17th Century and appears as a country house garden in the national record. It may have offered a private green room where a local family walked after dinner, measured pleasure in blossom and quiet, and kept the wider village at a polite distance. That much is missing from the facts, but the name and period leave room for it. The garden may still hold the shape of that private world, waiting for someone to walk it without assuming ownership.
