**The garden, designed and created** by **Geoff Stonebank** and **Mark Glassman**, has been featured in many garden magazines and won several awards.

After an introductory talk by Geoff the group toured the seaside themed front garden and the sheltered rear main garden offering softer and colourful planting schemes followed by tea and homemade cakes.
