Morville Hall
Morville Hall is a serene Elizabethan manor house near Bridgnorth in Shropshire, surrounded by a remarkable sequence of gardens created over many decades by historian Katherine Swift, whose book about them became a classic. The house itself is let as a holiday property, but the gardens — laid out to mirror the history of English garden design — draw visitors in their own right. Peaceful, beautiful, and thoughtfully layered.
