Ready to start the restoration

Rob George 5th Oct, 2019   0

GREEN-fingered apprentices have started work on a project to restore the garden of a historic Georgian style heritage house to its former glory.

Students based at Pershore College, which is part of WCG (formerly Warwickshire College Group), have started renovation works on the Italianate Garden at Moreton Hall.

The Italianate Garden features an ornamental sundial, herbaceous borders, formal hedges, lawns, paving, steps and a water feature. There will also be work carried out on a small parterre which is visible on the approach to the hall.

Works on the garden are expected to be completed in 2022, with more than 80 students and apprentices involved over the course of the development.




The grounds have been left unkempt following the devastating fire which seriously damaged Moreton Hall in 2008.
