Open day at 49 Bankside

For one day only, this enchanting garden will open its gates to the public, offering a rare glimpse into a private world steeped in history and charm.

Tucked away on the riverside, 49 Bankside is no ordinary garden. Its story is so unique it features in Gillian Tindall’s acclaimed book, The House by the Thames. This tranquil retreat boasts a small paved courtyard adorned with a pond and a vintage 1930s fountain.

Lush climbers scale the old brick walls, while pots overflow with vibrant foliage, creating a tapestry of textures and colours – a true urban sanctuary.
