Crook Hall: The Gardens Loved By Poets Wordsworth & Ruskin

In April, we visited the beautiful Crook Hall Gardens in Durham, owned by the National Trust.

The gardens have been around for centuries and attracted famous visitors, such as the poets William Wordsworth and John Ruskin.

Head Gardener Cal Stewart shows us around the gardens in this video tour to highlight the different garden rooms that have been built over the years.
