St Paul's Walden Bury
St Paul's Walden Bury, Hitchin, Hertfordshire SG4 8BP
St Paul's Walden Bury is a celebrated Grade I listed landscape garden, laid out in the early 18th century, covering about 50 acres. The surrounding St Paul's Walden Bury Estate, with its arable and livestock farm and its ancient woodland, is a traditional country estate set in the heart of the beautiful Hertfordshire countryside.
This was the birth place and childhood home of Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother. Her family, the Bowes Lyons, still live here as they have since 1725.
It is located 5 miles south of Hitchin, half a mile north of Whitwell village on the B651.
The garden can occasionally be hired for wedding receptions. There is a licence for Civil Ceremonies in the house or in one of the temples in the garden. See the link to Weddings on the left.
The garden can be visited by appointment, £7.50 entrance. Please use contact form on the left.
Art in the Woods this Sunday October 13th, 2-4 pm. For further information see www.Outdoorlearningexperiences.org and go to Annual Events.
