In the 60’s this entire garden was managed by one man, Mr Albert Green. It is now home to several allotments, gardened by different families and individuals living nearby. You can walk around and see all the varied ideas and styles of how to grow vegetables and fruit. They are beautiful, creative and very productive. Each wall inside the kitchen garden would have been used to grow different fruits. The whole of the south facing wall used to be covered in peach trees, their fruit ripening against the sun-warmed bricks. There is now a huge fig tree here. The centre of the gardens is planted with an ancient, bowing mulberry tree, and round it many native apple trees; some old, some new, but mostly Norfolk or East Anglian in origin. In the summer there are mown paths winding through the long grass, twisting round the apple trees, reaching a lovely swing seat to rest on.
