Eastcote Walled Garden

Eastcote Walled Garden
The Dovecote - July 2018

I visited Eastcote Walled Garden on a very hot day in July 2018, on a walk onwards to Ruislip Lido. I'd already stopped at a nearby pub, the wonderfully named The Case is Altered, and yet when I walked around the garden taking my photos, I felt as parched as the lawn there. It was a scorcher (difficult to think of in January 2024). I do believe these photos capture this.

Eastcote House Gardens lie in Hillingdon in west London. Other than the walled garden and dovecote, there's also an old coach house, which were retained at the public's request after Eastcote House itself was demolished in 1964. They have been Grade II listed since 1974. The gardens are maintained by volunteers.
