I was Head Gardener to Lord and Lady Normanby (The Guinness Family) for 17 years, before that I was Head Gardener to Lord Zetland , I am also a Seed Merchant and Breeder with my own seed company.
During work as a Head Gardener I was fortunate to work with Arabella Lennox Boyd and Penelope Hobhouse two of the foremost garden designers and plantswomen in the UK. I have thorough knowledge of the garden design and walled gardens and I am availble to advise on these subjects and any good garden project.
I have bred quite a few vegetables particularly Pot Leeks Yorkshire Giant, Yorkshire Green and the Yorkshire Blue. I also bred my onion Ailsae I hope you find my Blog interesting and should you need to contact me please email
