Get involved with the Simonsbath - Ashcombe Garden Volunteers.  This lost Garden was designed and started by John Knight in the early 1800's but never finished.  The garden represents one of the last Picturesque landscapes in England but it’s original vision was never completed. Traces of garden terraces, bridges and paths remain, but very little is known about the overall plan for the gardens. We are now working on uncover and reawaken this landscape, making it a welcome space for visitors to explore. 

Focuses of activity vary from practical ground work, planting, through to historical research and ongoing maintenance of the garden.
