There will be the chance for people to take and review photos, share tips, get feedback and meet like- minded people.
The Walled Garden was originally part of the kitchen garden for Guy’s Cliffe House from at least the 1770s to the late 1940s.
From the mid 1980s it became totally overgrown until restoration began in 2014 with support from Hintons Nursery staff and 30 dedicated volunteers.

Booking is essential for the workshop and can be done by emailing: [email protected]
When emailing people are being asked to put ‘Photography Workshop’ in the subject heading.
The emails should also include if people consider themselves a beginner or intermediate and can state what camera is intended to be used.
