Barnsdale was created by Geoff Hamilton in 1983, at a Victorian farmhouse with over 5 acres of land from where he presented Gardeners' World. His down to earth style made him a hit with the viewers, constantly developing garden designs, experimenting with plants, themes and ideas to inspire the nation to get outside and have a go. And it was here that he earned the reputation of being the ‘People’s Gardener’ – and this spirit lives on today at Barnsdale Gardens,
