Description:
A mid-18th century walled garden in the grounds of an A-listed Laird's House. The garden retains historic features, such as the paths intersecting at the listed 1786 sundial at the centre, and a fine stone carving of a recumbent retriever over the gate. Gallery’s garden was redesigned and replanted in 1999 with a formal layout consisting of 'rooms', including a white garden, rose garden, gold garden and summer lawn. The colourful herbaceous borders, clipped hedges and closely-mown lawns contribute to a peaceful, relaxing atmosphere. Gallery's grounds include a new orchard of crab apple and prunus, laid out in a grid, with paths mown through a meadow of spring bulbs and wildflowers
Directions: Take the Hillside turn off the A90. Turn left towards Gallery. The entrance to the parking area is through the third gate on your left (marked Gallery Home Farm, it will be signposted). Alternatively, if you are coming from Montrose, turn off the A937 just before Marykirk.
