Hemingstone Hall
The early-seventeenth century Hemingstone Hall was once surrounded by a series of geometric gardens, shown on a surviving 1749 estate map. These included an avenue on the central axis of the house that was lost during the nineteenth century but has now been re-established. West of the house is a surviving walled garden dated to the early-eighteenth century, although some earlier elements can also be seen. By the nineteenth century the formal gardens to the front of the house had been swept away to be replaced with a park-like area with open views towards the house. An eighteenth century barn and stables lie to the north-west. The house and gardens were extensively restored and extended during the second half of the twentieth century to include a tall yew hedge along the boundary with the lane, the walled garden, topiary yews, parterres, woodland garden and herbaceous borders.
