‘God Almighty first planted a garden: and indeed it is the purest of human pleasures. It is the greatest refreshment of the spirits of man’, the first lines of Francis Bacon's essay On Gardens cut into a slate panel, by calligrapher Jackie Allan, surrounded by acers, brunnera and Lamium orvala with John Aulman's yew wood angel beyond. Caervallack Farm, St Martin, Helston, Cornwall, UK
