Hungerdowns is a typical Georgian farmhouse in North-East Essex with its garden laid out since 1993 within the walls of what were originally farmyards around the house. There are many old roses and a wide palette of perennials, bulbs, shrubs and climbers. There is a 6-acre wood with a mature yew maze in the middle. There are vegetable gardens, a pond and two orchards and many examples of yew, beech, box, holly and holm oak topiary created in the last 30 years.
