Gardens on the site of an historic Clunaic monastery will be open at the weekend, raising money for a nearby church.
Katy Tanner is getting ready to open Preen's garden for the Historic Churches Trust
The trust raises money to provide funding to churches and chapels for essential repairs and preservation work, as well as encourage interest in the heritage of churches in Shropshire. Home to Katy and James Tanner since 2016, Preen Manor was once the site of a Cluniac monastery, established in the 12th century. The Cluniac Reforms were a series of changes focused on restoring the traditional monastic life, encouraging art and caring for the poor.A huge overhaul of the Preen Manor site in the 1870s saw the monastic buildings demolished, and an elaborate garden and mansion built in its place.
A comprehensive redesign in the 20th century created a plethora of 'garden rooms' with a wide variety of plantings, including a vegetable garden, pools and naturalistic woodland gardens.
