The vegetable garden is a mixture of easy to maintain plots divided by a pergola supporting rose and clematis, connecting to cherry trees and spring bulbs.

 

 

Rhododendrons at Kentchurch Court

 

To the North of the house, rhododendrons planted in the late 1960's continue to flourish and hopefully will be joined with an underplanting of Acers under the existing woodland canopy.

 

 

Deer Park at Kentchurch Court

The garden is adjacent to the deer park which contains a well established continuous planting of trees including yews (dating back 3,000 years) to Jack O'Kents oak which is reputed to have been old in the 14th Century. The field maples are some of the largest in England.

In September 2009, Kentchurch was home to the very successful 'PayDirt' project as part of
Herefordshire Art Week (h.Art)
