Fullers Mill is an enchanting and tranquil seven-acre creation on the banks of the River Lark. It combines a beautiful light dappled woodland with a plantsman's collection of unusual shrubs, perennials, lilies and marginal plants. It is a garden of truly year-round interest.
The garden was created by the late Bernard Tickner MBE (1924-2017). He moved to Fullers Mill in 1958 and spent over 50 years creating the garden you see today from rough scrub and woodland. In 2004 he and his wife Bess donated the garden to The Fullers Mill Trust, a registered charity, which was established to manage the garden and to ensure its future.
In 2013 the garden was gifted to Perennial – the only UK charity that helps anyone working with plants, trees, flowers and grass – for its long-term preservation. Head Gardener Annie Dellbridge and her team of gardeners and volunteers now maintain the garden for the enjoyment of visitors from April to October.
