Thriplow Bury

Introduction

Features of Thriplow Bury include a kitchen garden, orchard, pond and dovecote.

The gardens are approached via a lodge and drive bordered with lime trees. In 1884 there were two lawns with shrubberies, a walled kitchen garden, orchard, pond and dovecote. An early-19th century plan proposed the removal of the garden in favour of an extensive landscape design and provided excellent shelter for plants. The old three-sided moat is lined with trees.
History

Thriplow Bury is a Georgian red brick house with a façade which fronts an earlier timber-framed house.
