Stockwood Discovery Centre is a paradise for garden enthusiasts and one of the few places in the country where the work of acclaimed artist Ian Hamilton Finlay can be seen on permanent display: the Improvement Garden is a classical garden in which the sculptures are an integral part of the landscape.

Once part of the original Stockwood House walled areas, the Period Gardens reflect the changing styles of gardening in the UK. Visitors can enjoy the intricate patterns of the Elizabethan Knot Garden and the formality of the Italian Garden.

The Discovery Gardens include Sensory, World and Medicinal gardens, featuring areas dealing with healthy eating and fitness, medicinal plants and herbs, a garden to stimulate our senses, and a series of world gardens.

For those interested in bees, we have a gallery with some display on bees. Please note that there is no bees currently living in the gallery, as the change in the climate have been effecting the bees.
