St Beuno's College

Introduction

The mid-19th-century designed garden at St Beuno's is attached to a contemporary religious house. The gardens comprise a number of terraces that were originally planted with fruit trees and are now mostly grassed over. A further terrace has formal circular beds in it. A wooded walk leads to the garden boundary, then across a field to a chapel.
