Overview

Anglesey Abbey Gardens & Lode Mill was built around 1600 on the site of an Augustinian priory. Much later, in the 1930s, it was the home of Huttleston Broughton, the first Lord Fairhaven. He supervised the creation of the wonderful gardens that include avenues of trees, flowerbeds and numerous statues. Inside the house, visitors can tour Lord Fairhaven's collection of artwork, including clocks and tapestries. Outside, footpaths lead away from the flowerbeds to the river and Lode watermill (working the first Saturday of each month).
