The Gibberd Garden

A delightful and unusual place. Architecture, fine art, beautiful garden, community connections - plus tea and cake! A real joy to visit. My only wish is that the site provided more help with identifying the sculptures and gave more information about them. The chart you can buy isn't easy to follow and is very limited in the detail provided. If the sculptures were numbered so you can locate them on the map that would help. However this didn't detract from the enjoyment of our visit.

Lovely garden, lots to look at and investigate. Tea rooms, although didn't use it as gardens were closing. Limited opening times.

A lovely gem of tranquility in Harlow. However, compared to many places, it is quite expensive. Only open on Wednesday and Sunday afternoons. Lovely pot of tea.

A national treasure is this place that features the works of English sculptors. So far the garden boasts 90 pieces. The architect founder is a fascinating figure so do look him up. The place was made possible through the good efforts of local people. Do visit during snowdrop season in February (see the website). I believe the garden also hosts a beer festival at some point in the year, so look out for that too. Im looking forward to visiting the garden again in full bloom in the summer.
