Wacky and wonderful watery garden of Richard Pim, retired hydrogeologist and folly enthusiast set in the fertile farmland of north-west Herefordshire, a world away from the barren places in which Richard spent his working life bringing water to arid landscapes. In the 1960s he wrote a letter to a friend from the Libyan desert with a postscript saying ‘if you ever find a water meadow, with a brook and an old mill, buy it for me’. Westonbury Mill is the result of that scribbled request and now boasts two acres of water-loving plants surrounding a sequence of distinctive follies including a water powered cuckoo clock and a shady igloo made of empty wine bottles. Fun and great horticulture in one splendid package.
