    Owned and managed by the Shropshire Wildlife Trust, this little garden is where Charles Darwin spent much time as a child. His father built the Mount and Darwin would catalogue the flowers that grew here, taking inspiration from his gardener mother.



    Visit by pre-arranging an appointment with the Trust or see it from the riverside path.
