Part of the Rock Garden at Mount Ephraim Gardens
The house was originally built in 1695, then rebuilt in 1878 and then extended in 1913. The gardens were laid out in the Edwardian era, but after wartime neglect (when most adult men were enlisted in wartime services) were substantially restored from the early 1950s. See
Link for more information.
Japanese rock gardens were fashionable at the start of the 20th century. The Rock Garden at Mount Ephraim followed this trend with its stone lanterns and bridge but no attempt was ever made to plant in an Oriental style. It has a series of pools with a miniature cascade.
