Cumberland Garden, Redbourn

I like to find little places for a cuppa and a rest during my rides. Today I discovered a delightful little walled garden in Redbourn. It used to be the private garden of the Duke of Cumberland. He later gifted it to the council. Across the road is a nice little cafe.

Warm welcome and tasty beef and onion wrap at Sean's Cafe, reasonably priced, with a 'secret garden' across the road! Nice 👍

Cumberland Garden in Redbourn, Hertfordshire, is a public, walled garden with a rich history. Originally part of the grounds of Cumberland House, which was believed to have been built as a hunting lodge for the Duke of Cumberland around 1745, the garden was donated to the Parish in 2007. It's now a tranquil spot with lawns, mature trees, and flowerbeds, used for local events like 'Gigs in the Garden'. It provides a pedestrian link between the High Street and the village's health centre. For more information, see: redbourn-pc.gov.uk/cumberland-gardens
