Lost Gardens

Ambleside (1x4)

Air date: Oct 07, 2010

When Frances and Jim Philbrook moved into their Victorian country house in the heart of the Lake District, they never suspected the plot they'd inherited was once a much admired and extraordinary garden. Why would they? Apart from some neatly trimmed lawns, most of their grounds were hidden beneath decades' worth of bramble and rhododendrons, which had knitted together so densely that they allowed little light to penetrate the space.
