Restoring the Arboriculturalist’s Workshed

Recreation of The Tasting Garden

Although the final touches have still to be completed, the bulk of the work was undertaken by a member of the Friends in 2021.

The work included replacing the rotten wooden frames to the glazing and repainting all the external woodwork.

Below are a couple of images showing the rotten frames followed by an image after the restoration.
